Øbama is apparently "weeding out" generals who refuse to "fire on U.S. citizens". It is reported that is Øbama's new "litmus test" for retaining Generals.
This particularly scary in light on the new push toward "gun control".
All they have to do is rename Gun Owners “Looters”, problem solved.
I sure hope Obama doesn’t lurk here.
I would imagine he’d have a hard time finding any officers if that is the case
I know for a fact that the Obanation of Desolation is widely despised in the military.
It also means that if he provoke a civil war then the good guys will have a ready cadre of able officers
no matter what they tell this naive asshole, they will not do it. Orders have been disobeyed before....trust me.....and any soldier who shoots at Americans will be killed by other soldiers who will not
Bama is a flaming asshole who cannot leave soon enough.
Sorry, but I don’t believe this. I want more evidence than simply the word of someone who talked to someone who said it’s happening. What’s to prevent one of the terminated general officers from speaking out to the media? Where’s the evidence?
I can believe the military trains to put down attacks from within the US. They need to be prepared, for example, from coordinated attacks by terror cells that are undoubtedly in the country. That’s not the same thing as putting down a much wider spread civilian insurrection, although the military would be obliged to restore order in that case, too.
However, I refuse to believe the rank and file military would fire, without warning shots, on civilians who are simply deemed to be enemies of the state by virtue of owning and refusing to relinquish guns. That’s an order they would rightly disobey as being against the laws of war.
Please tell me, which media outlet would carry a story like that?
“From my cold dead hands”! Here is your History lesson: Sioux Indians at Wounded Knee South Dakota 122 years ago.
Federal agents and members of the 7th Cavalry who had come to confiscate their firearms “for their own safety and protection”. The slaughter began AFTER the majority of the Sioux had peacefully turned in their firearms. When the final round had flown, of the 297 dead or dying, two thirds (200) were women and children. This was the first federally backed gun confiscation program in United States history.
Exactly right......and those, like a poster above here in this very thread, who refuse to believe it’s possible are going to be shocked as all hell the first time it happens....not just in modern day America, but VERY soon.
It’s coming, folks. Be ready.
bill clinton just came out yesterday and told them to back off. They thought their time had come. They were wrong.
BUT
Prepare for a new and different crisis because they NEED the chaos and it WILL come.
Link?
Thanks in advance.
All Nobel Prize nominees are not exactly trustworthy. I refer you to arafat, gore, and obama. The nobels haven’t been worth the time it takes to read the list anymore.
Well do you think Obamas Civilan army would do it one that is just as well funded and trained as our military? This video is from the 2008 campaign.

Bill Clinton Cautions Gun Grabbers
Eric at the Gunmart Blog
United States —(Ammoland.com)- In a recent meeting with top Democrat donors, Bill Clinton tried to send a message to all those politicians who seek to disarm the civilian population and while doing so he let the mask slip just a bit.
In the meeting Clinton is trying to send the message to gun grabbers that they probably shouldnt get too aggressive on this one. Stating:
Do not patronize the passionate supporters of your opponents by looking down your nose at them,
Do not be self-congratulatory about how brave you for being for this gun control push, he said. The only brave people are the people who are going to lose their jobs if they vote with you.
Its also very telling because he showed that politicians, no matter how dogmatic they are about civilian disarmament, will always first and foremost care more about their own careers. He cautions lawmakers that this issue can and will end careers. He points out that it cost Gore precious electoral votes when a gun control civilian disarmament referendum was on the presidential ballot, and that it cost a bunch of lawmakers their jobs in 1994.
But, but, but its about saving lives. Right? Why would any of these liberals care about the self preservation of their careers over the cost of the lives of innocent children!?! To quote President Obama, If it can save but one life
Ive had many sleepless nights in the many years since, Clinton said. One reason? I never had any sessions with the House members who were vulnerable, he explained saying that he had assumed they already knew how to explain their vote for the ban to their constituents.
Did you catch that? Clinton had many sleepless nights not because his Assault Weapons Ban did not go far enough or because he didnt confiscate every gun in the nation to turn us into the gun-free utopia that all the gun grabbers tell us that we can be. He lost sleep because he didnt explain the talking points well enough to those politicians who stripped people of their rights and were up for re-election. He lost sleep, not because his assault weapons ban did nothing to stop the slaughter that happened at Columbine High School in 1999, but because he didnt teach the gun grabbers how to effectively lie their way to another term. He didnt lose sleep because his gun control civilian disarmament law caused crime to go up, but because it ended up being a political victory for the opposition. He lost sleep because he cares more about the political game than the lives that he tells us gun control civilian disarmament will save and the utopian wonderland that it will create for us.
Shameful, but very telling.

Thank you. I appreciate the link.
You are more than welcome anytime, Neil.
With the advent of these ass clowns in DC and the sycophantic treasonous military hierarchy, you can bet they are planning something. Whether it is a financial meltdown or some other event, planned or whatever, DHS buying 1.6 billion rounds is cause enough to be concerned...
The mil has the 10% who are dirtbags, (having retired from the mil, and retired from it) I would say that on that account you would be, again wrong.
They would in fact, follow orders to fire on "dissidents" and folks who will not comply with the illegal orders from DC.
SERE_DOC: “They would in fact, follow orders to fire on “dissidents” and folks who will not comply with the illegal orders from DC.”
We can agree to disagree then. Even if the military is trained to handle insurrection, they still have to go home at some point. We can assume the red states would be most likely to put up a fight if they were ordered to turn over all privately held weapons. Do you honestly think military members from those states would open up on their friends and families? I don’t.
Every military officer’s oath is to defend the Constitution - not to obey the President.
Every enlisted man/woman’s oath is to obey their officers.
Any officer who bows to O on this is violating his oath.
Question needs to be: will you defend the Constitution? And if not, stripped of rank because they are violating their oath.
Won’t happen of course.
The Wounded Knee incident was ruled in federal court to be an act of war with the Sioux Nation, which resulted in the acquittal of a Sioux who killed (or murdered if not an act of war) an Army officer.
During time of war it is routine to disarm the enemy.
