[SECURE AMERICA]

This is my thought on Obama’s idea of Brown Shirts for America.
Unlike the German Military, the American Military will not take kindly to these people. I work closely with many current military people and I do not see them sitting idlely by and allowing America to be taken over by thugs.
Beyond that, we the people of America are far better armed then the German people were and I do not see us allowing Brown Shirts to operate in the same manner as did the german peoples.

I believe the U. S. Constitution prohibits the presence of an active "Standing army..." within the borders of the United States of America; one of the problems Lincoln wrestled with in the mid-to-late 1860's, which I believe he negotiated successfully by declaring Martial Law and a national State of Emergency.

The more astute constitutional scholars than I really should weigh in here though, as I am guessing from what little I remember from high school history & civics.

Will we have any military personnel left? Current troops will not re-up and I can’t imagine that anyone will join now that O is “commander in chief.”
I disagree about American people. Most are still in denial, if you will, about what’s happening. I fear they won’t understand until it’s too late.
