There's a lot of talk about the consequences of massive election fraud putting Hillary in office and what to do about it if it comes to pass; here's a few numbers of what patriots would be up against if things got nasty. The Rats don't fear CWII because they have a large group of people who would be their proxies in any civil unrest that might arise. Here's a few statistics to mull over:
People generally do what they are paid to do.

I’ve been telling doubters for years that the military and law enforcement will kill you in a heartbeat if they are ordered to do so by higher authority. This is universally true and history is replete with examples.
The only statistics that matter are:
1. There are over 300 million private arms in the US
2. 85% of those arms are owned by white men, 1/3 of those with past military service
What on earth would the army do if those private arms were turned toward THEIR families and assets?
My answer today is to send “Lawyers, Money and pray that we don’t need to send the guns.”
“That was a type of geurilla action, but it was eventually put down by a combination of National Guard and LE efforts”
A statewide effort to regain control of one rioting quadrant of one city. What would they do when it is everywhere and their safe areas are not safe? Impossible.
You are not thinking things thru here. The Red states are going to go ape if Shitlery steals the election. The Blue states would be happy. Why would a red state go into chaotic unrest if the Governor and legislature would be willing to secede? Why would there be war?
As a trucker I heard chatter about refusing to go into areas where the natives were shutting down highways and looting trucks. After what happened in Charlotte not long ago that sentment is pretty common. No trucker I know will roll through an area where they may get shot. No trucks no food fuel or anything for anyone.
Exactly... and the nation would be a hellish bitter place for 100 years after.
“What kind of organization and logistics would a 10 million man militia require?”
Look at the damage 20,000 Iraqi insurgents did to 140,000 trained combat troops who’s families were safe back home.
Drag that out for 20 years against even as little as a million determined Americans who have expert knowledge of their own turf. And who are well armed.
Let us not forget that if this was even possible, the fraud POTUS Hillary would have to deal with a Republican House and Senate. That’s if she survived the Inauguration.
The rest of us would just ignore her pronouncements.
It would be more a campaign of targeted assassination and death squads with some heavy civil unrest in the cities.
A much bigger version of El Salvador in the '80's.
Almost every red state has a few pockets of blue; I think your point about secession is important, I also think that secession might not be necessary, just a massive Red State unwillingness to go along with any federal laws or regulations. Although I keep seeing history from 1860-1865. Secession did not work out well the first time.
I don’t think things would be calm if Hillary stole the election. And as for the Republican Senate, they haven’t shown much resistance to Obama’s unconstitutional actions.
“It would be more a campaign of targeted assassination and death squads with some heavy civil unrest in the cities.”
And everyone who receives government payroll would be considered a fair target, along with their families and property.
All the way down to their dog in the backyard.
Merciless mass murder.
You are probably right.
If it actually happened I’m sure I would have a completely different viewpoint knowing I actually live inside an Orwell Novel.
Right now the chances of Hillary becoming POTUS are as good as me winning the Powerball.
The secession worked out fine and was orderly in 1861. The war went bad. This time there will be no war because Yankees and Kalifornicators are ball-less do nothings. They will say adios to the red states and no war will take place.
That’s about 3,5 million armed federal, state, and local personnel.
Yes. And during a Trump Presidency, virtually all of them will be on our side, with Trump, and most of the Federal government during the Revolution.
We mostly won the revolution with the November 8th Vote in 2016.
It is far better to be on the government side during the revolution, and that is where the election puts us, with the government on our side.
“...people quickly figured out they had to prevent the military and police from gathering/arming at their barracks.”
Well, that ship has sailed. What about the thousands of weapons and bullets the various government agencies have been stockpiling? All the government agencies are well armed, and for what? Maybe we will be finding out.
With a leftist government, if it came to shooting it out with the citizenry the effort would be to get as much of the military as possible offshore as quickly as possible. Leftists NEVER trust the institutional military and always maintain it just to repel foreign attack or prevent it. They fear it at home. They always move to purge the officer corps. Carter did it. Clinton did it. Hussein is still working on that. Got to flush out all the experienced officers and NCOs to be replaced with Reliables. Even the military is not trusted and will not be used against the population unless the paramilitaries that leftists in power always build cannot handle the opposition. The military will be filled with a parallel officer corps whose job is to keep the active commanders in line or kill them if they get out of line. Much of Hussein’s continuing desultory warfare is designed to keep much of the military out of the country. Even the Soviets did not trust their military and it did betray the commies in the end.
Subtract from that number the ones who are military/ police. I bet that number drops a bit.
Some few here have made the wise comment not to fully trust the MIL or LEOs. Don’t just assume they are pro-Constitution gung-ho country-above-authority.
The other big underestimation too many make is weaponry. Guess who has all the biggest and best? Yup, and “common sense” says no regular civilian should be allowed to have them. How’s that working out?
