New Hampshire fired the first shot. Although 7 other states have similar pending resolutions and bills, Oklahoma is the first to actually pass one. Another 27 states are expected to make similar moves in the coming months. Thatll leave the country split 71-29.
Now, before you get too excited, bear in mind that all of this was likely Obamas goal. Boiled down, all of these state measures are threats of secession. Recall, if you will, Obamas obsession to be the 21st Century Abraham Lincoln, and his ominous calls to recreate and rebuild America. Who was Lincoln? Why, he was the man who preserved the Union by way of implementing military force against states that had seceded. Lincoln knew full well that he would not be preserving the Union, but that he would be conquering sovereign nations, and that he would then have to destroy their cultures and ideologies, remaking both in the image of the Norths. And that is precisely what happened in the aftermath of Lincolns war of aggression. He didnt preserve the Union, he changed it forever and handed unprecedented powers to the Federal Government.
Okay, so now Im going to run with a theory.

In 1861 not all southerners were secessionists, not all northerners wanted to invade the south and enforce Federalism however - all that matters once IT STARTS and the lines are drawn, geography is everything. The only important thing is which side of the fence you are on my FRiend. Northern Conservatives and Southern Liberals will be a thing of the past.
I don't want this either, just the way it is playng out, clear as a bell.
What will light the fuze is this, when people in flyover country start to realize,collectivley, that they don't have to go along with the socialists, and that there is another way.
That would be Checkmate. Where are Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt when you need them?
A BIG Maybe for sure but in my opinion probably the only chance we have to restore liberty and freedom for ALL. Including the folks who show up for mind numbing work everyday, pay their mortgages and bills on time and support their families as they should.
The founders left it for us to use in just such a circumstance of last resort.
At best we are going to see some interesting and difficult times ahead. Please prepare accordingly...
I’m pretty sure that was not military, and that no military entered houses, it was Blackwater. I believe the troops said they could not even bunker down in private homes.
There is also a move afoot to fast track ‘immigrants’ to citizenship so that they can serve in the military.

Above is a really funny English/Canadian guy with some serious current news vidoes on youtube. He beats watching CNN,CBS,ABC,NBC and others.
“rule by martial law for a while”
With riots fomented by ACORN over housing and the breakdown of law, including food riots, 0 could do that and take guns as a result.
Just saying.
I remember someone mentioning that here withing the last few days - he was there and they were prohibited from even staying in abandoned houses due the Third Amendment.
What we in MI need is a FReeper in TX that will sponsor us.
I have a camper, a generator and enough guns for every member of my family.
If someone will sponsor an out of state FReeper, we will be strong.
Bump for a MUST read.
Correction - zero could **try** to take guns, but sending his ACORN / Muslim thugs door to door hear to try and take them would be the fuse to start the whole thing, and give us some much needed live target practice.
“What we in MI need is a FReeper in TX that will sponsor us.

if it comes to it, you would be welcome with us in TX. Of course, we also have our own guns and ammo, and can reload. Need to work on my garden, though - I do have 1 acre to work with.
I've run into all sorts of rumors about that, but when Patricia Koine says "three California Highway Patrolmen" I have to take her at her word. The CHP has become a clique looking after its own interest, both unionized and insular, entirely capable of unconstitutional behavior under the guise of "emergency powers." For the most part and from what I have heard, the most disgusting abuses were by police, which should actually concern us more from a day-to-day perspective.
Blackwater was in NO and was supposedly photographed patrolling the streets, but I've examined those pictures and there was no company logo on any of their gear. They were there and there are rumors, but I haven't been able to substantiate them. In fact, I even contacted GOA directly about it and they looked into it too and couldn't come out with anything substantive.
We are hard working Polish women. We could handle your garden. And one Dad who is a computer whiz. He handles the electronic stuff!
Don’t forget that 0 thinks that the Constitution of our nation is “fundamentally flawed”.
“I hate to break it to you, but you already are, and have been for a very long time.”
Ha ha...that makes me sad.
I’m afraid their is an inherent danger in calling a constitutional convention. Representatives would be appointed by current state governors (I believe) who are mostly Dems now. And once a convention is called, it cannot be limited as to topics. They could as easily rescind the 2nd Amendment as force the feds to behave. I’m not sure we want to go there!
