The Davidians got their licks in initially. Most of us don't have a compound to retreat to so, we would need to go on the offensive in large numbers.
IMO, they don't pay LEO, NG or regular military enough to kill fellow citizen on a large scale, nuts or not.
If and when the fed can generate 'enough' commanders of small units, it will be an offensive against 'gangs' or 'drug dealers' or 'illegal guns'...
NO evidence neccesary or suspects arrested to say otherwise, just smoldering rubble where your house and family used to be...
sorry bout the negativity this AM...

“IMO, they don’t pay LEO, NG or regular military enough to kill fellow citizen on a large scale, nuts or not. “
If given the choice of being a cop and applying martial law, or getting fired and being the subject of martial law, which do you think the majority of people would do?
The regular military don’t take an oath to a President, or the Congress or a King. They take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. As you well know, the 2A is part of that Constitution. Would there be some members of the military that would participate in large scale gun confiscation if they were asked to, certainly. However, being a former Marine myself, I know that no one in the military is required to obey an unlawful order and a large majority of military would not participate in large scale gun confiscation.
