I’m sorry, Red. I will have to disagree on the civil war thing.

It just won’t happen.

The US Army in 1861 was about as well armed as the citizenry of the time. Some local municipalities owned artillery for crying out loud!

We know how that turned out, and the US Army of today would make Waco look like a backyard bbq if it came down to it.

You think our soldiers wouldn’t fire on US? Some would refuse. Maybe most would. But if it comes down to chaos and their country crumbling, I suspect the Army will accept orders initially...on the premise that they’re only trying to restore order.

Once the rebellion is crushed (permanently)...it won’t matter where the individual soldiers stand, they will have inadvertantly ushered in the new order.

And the people will bring this on themselves. Why? Just Why? What is in it for the Obami masses? Sure if you have a couple million in your mattress, fine. But what about the working class? Do they want to be in charge of the Gulag? I don’t get it. Half the population is ready to give up all that made us great.......

Thats why we get to them before hand...

There MUST be SOME that take their oath seriously? Its simply a matter of convincing key people that its time to fulfill their oath against the correct domestic enemy.

It can be done, we NEED to try! If they wont fight for us they need to at least agree to stand down.
