The "tea party" got a million people to protest at the Capitol on 9/12/2009.
Time for a "we mean it" sequel.

I would love to see another 9/12 type march in numbers, but if it is as peaceful as that one it would be ineffective. We need to take a lesson form the left for protesting. We not only need the numbers, but we need to make a LOT of noise and mayhem so the media and the gov. would get the message loud and clear.

There's a very loud din coming from our military right now. If there was ever at time I'd pray for a military coup d'etat, it's now.
Yeah, if it is for the purpose of restoring a Constitutional based government, I think it is the "cleanest" way to do it. I'm not talking about some idea of a coup like in a Latin American country, but as an interim to restore the Constitution. BTW, be careful, I got into trouble with my old tagline that said: "General James Mattoon Scott, where are you when we need you? We need a regime change."
We may be risking the ire of some moderators but we cannot hide what could happen and I do say my opinion is strictly my own and not of Free Republic.

I asked that same question to a retired Marine...his answer...yes, the troops would follow orders. I was speechless after hearing his answer. Granted this was only one man’s opinion.

I was pleasantly surprised by that movie. I was expecting it to be politically correct, since it is aimed and teens and it wasn’t. I read the whole series.
I can see it happening. Little by little we are losing our humanity.

A mass march on Washington? Useless.
A mass march on your state capitol demanding autonomy might prove a little more interesting.

Civil War is the only option at this point. No, it's not.
In this instance, terminology matters. *Rebellion* is the necessary option. Rebellion is a *Constitutional right* when the government becomes the despotic oppressor ours has become.
Only option? No, there is the option of acquiescing to slavery, which I believe is what the majority of Americans are willing to do. 25%-40% are doing it eagerly.

I have no doubt Obama would summon the US Military in such an exigency. But would they fire on citizens? Yes.
Not all, but enough.
And after another 4 years of these Marxists remaking the military, probably a lot more.
When we get into the full fledged depression, military service will mean food and shelter. People will do a lot for that.

Do NOT let them know we're coming.
You know,I agree and concur six ways to Sunday,but I think we should wait until Election Day.Plan up until that point,just via word-of-mouth,passing info and tactics between ourselves.I don't see the POS getting re-upped,but,by God,if he is,it should be out-and-out,balls-to-the-wall,shock-and-awe,and definitely fast and furious.

Agreed 1000%. The time for playing nice and "being civil" is long past. We continue down the "civility" path at our own peril. May our chains rest lightly upon us if we don't get in their faces in an extremely radical way.

Do that and the democRATS will win in November!
They would be praying for something like that to happen.

D.C. Has been done and marginalized by the US media. I think a large march to the UN building should be next. Get them out of here before all these international “ treaties” come up before the statist Senate. Besides the world media would not be able to ignore the march or the implied message that they are unwelcome here.
