Woah...I think I'm sorry I asked for your opinion :)

I will have to join you all again a little later, dinner is calling. I hope this thread is still going, it has been quite informative and well, frightening.

coincidence?

‘hat is a good question. I don’t believe the military would go along, in fact I think they would go against him for the most part.”

Really? Waco, Ruby ridge, Pine Ridge Indian Reservation ring a bell?

Its very well proven that most people lack the strength to be a trend setter. They will go along with the crowd. Just transfer the few that refuse to the garbage detail and the rest will fall in line.

They won’t think they are doing anything wrong, they will be following orders to ‘suppress the enemies’ of America. I doubt even the Nazi’s went to ripping the arms off jewish babies in one fell swoop.

Explain to me why the media is so determined to butt into the Palins’ personal lives when they could be - and should be - reporting this

MSM=Pravda. Why? I don’t know. But it’s been happening for years. It just took an obama to show us how red the MSM really is.

Good company means the world to me right now....thank you for being here.

[driftdiver]

Having kids do that has already started. they are teaching them to do it in schools. They’ve done it with firearms, smoking, wasting energy, and God knows what else.

[IrishPennant]

Enjoy, LVR...

Here’s the answer, it’s been building upon itself for many decades.

“The question was: “What about the kids?””

I would greatly prefer not to leave my kids living in communism. hence my quote to make the other poor bastards die instead of us dying.

That way our kids have a better place.

[IrishPennant]

The thread seems to be slowing or dying- let me get something in before it does

THEY WORK FOR US - never forget...let this be a mantra.

Here's the thing. I'm thirty with no kids and a gf. I know many others can't say the same and have families that includes little children. The guys and gals feel the same way we do but when it comes down to it I think many of them will cave and go along.

They wouldn't do anything to risk putting their families in harm's way. They won't go along willingly but nevertheless I don't think they could be counted upon.

I remember that and have a real chill go up my spine when I think about it.

I remember those two guys at a voting place in Phila., I think, “guarding” the entrance and acting intimidatingly towards reporters. Fox News reported on it as it happened and that was it.

I don’t think the Republicans have the guts to “expose Obama to the public.” They’re (Senators) interested in working with him, not stopping him.

[Thumper1960]

I am damned glad I'm not in California.

At least here, in this area, I can count on at least some of my neighbors to have spines and help fight to protect what our founders presented us.

If you're going to leave, please do so quickly. We will need to know who we may count on if the SHTF.

#301, excellent post IrishPennant, excellent. Food for thought people.

[Dionysius]

I will always have a choice because I am a free American and I will never knuckle down to a tyrant like Obama. The Republic always served me well and now I am prepared to defend the Republic — to my last drop of blood. It’s a crying shame that you think that your only option is to gobble up wharever swill is put on your plate by the leftist bullies. You were born a free man, but now you seem to have resigned yourself to dying a slave.

And in closing, there will be no revolution. Maybe some bitching and griping but no revolution.

I thought that too. Until I heard exactly how it would happen. Until I heard why citizens are stock piling. Why survivalists are teaching groups just in case.

My understanding is the military and law enforcement will be among the ones who decide if it happens.

[IrishPennant]

Great points - think of Mel Gibson in the Patriot...when push comes to shove, you gotta do it...not for you but for the future. We cannot ever forget that. I have lived pretty damned well in my 47 years. My 12 year old also...but I want him to look back at 47 (Of course with me still around) and say “What a great,free country I brought my kids in to.”

[IrishPennant]

Thanks MoJoe...Humbles me whenever I read it.
