Look for mobs in the streets if this happens.


Mexican mobs with Mexican flags. The wimpy Americans would probably moan and groan but do little.

I agree, and I’ll be there. We have put up with alot from this guy so far, and I’m thinking most of it can be repealed/fixed. But not this.

The fact remains......there are way too many guns in the hands of private citizens for Jack Squat to remove them from...as such, declaring martial law will be a declaration of war against those/we freedom loving Americans, not necessarily a bad thing in my opinion

I'm certainly not disagreeing with your assessment but only projecting how a marxist dictator normally responds when his power is challenged.

Chaos and anarchy would immediately ensue, probably starting in various inner cities. The "control" they might envision with martial law would instead be gasoline on a stove-top fire.

I suspect BO/BS is trying to push Constitution loving Americans in that direction but he would regret such a tactic.

Why would anyone be surprised that a would-be dictator is thinking of pulling such a stunt? One thing’s for SURE...illegals had better be able and willing to vote in DROVES come November, as there may be 100 fewer democrats in office after the election should Hussein actually DO this!!

Yet another example of Obama’s elitist resolve to explicitly thwart popular will and pass a law that would be extremely harmful to America.

I think that’s the catch in this kind of takeover coup by mass amnesty. Mexican immigrants are not that politically motivated and I don’t think more than 20% of them would actually try to register and vote, because of concern that they would identify themselves as illegal immigrants and then they might be deported later if the mass amnesty was overturned (by courts or congress).

So the number of votes lost by the democrats among legal citizens in 2010 would be far more than the votes gained by illegals voting. So a mass amnesty by executive order would very likely backfire disastrously on Obama and lead to a huge number of GOP victories in November. So I think the rumors are probably exaggerated and this kind of stunt isn’t going to happen. Not that this administration wouldn’t want to do this if it would work, but their problem is that it would backfire badly in the first election and lead to GOP control of both the House and the Senate.

BO/BS will then use that potential threat as a reason to suspend election and declare martial law or some similar maneuver

0bozo will suspend elections and declare martial law huh?
Nicolae Caecescu (put before a firing squad and shot for high treason by a very irate Romanian people on Christmas Day 1988) says, "Hello!". He thought he could ignore the law and do what he liked against the will of the people too. And he was much tougher than 0bozo will ever be if he lived to be a 100.
Just let the cowradly Kenyan Marxist try imposing martial law and see what happens to him.

Obama isn’t going to attempt a takeover coup by mass amnesty. First that would lead to the GOP taking control of both the House and the Senate in November, and then a substantial number of remaining congressional democrats would abandon Obama and join a veto-proof majority that would overturn the executive order of mass amnesty by an act of congress. So the whole thing would end up as a huge disaster for the White House if they attempt a mass amnesty by executive order.

I think this is just another strategic head fake.

During the Obamacare negotiations the Dems threatened to pass the bill through a “reconciliation” which would have been an abuse of that legislative technique. By saying that he would get it done anyway, Obama was able to get more Dems to vote for it in the end. I think this is a similar attempt. “You might as well vote for Comprehensive Immigration Reform now, otherwise I am going to give all of the Illegals a pardon (amnesty) anyway, without your input and no bribe to you”.

There are a lot of old dogs that aren’t going to lie down. You can underestimate the American people but I know I won’t.
