A pretty, young, auburn-haired woman mid-20s drove down a lonely country road somewhere in Oklahoma. Appearing in her rearview mirror, at the back windshield, were two menacing orbs of light floating amid ashen dusk. The guttural roar of a souped-up big block shook the tiny Volkswagen Rabbit as a van-load of inbred thugs lurched left and drew alongside her. A ponytailed passenger taunted inaudibly and blew foul kisses between crude hand gestures. He pointed for her to pull over as the van repeatedly swerved dangerously close.
Inside the car a man, asleep in the reclining passenger seat, was startled awake by the commotion. He rose and darted his head about, calmly assessing the situation. This only spurred the evil-bent goons. As they ramped-up efforts to run the car off the road, the man reached in the glove box, withdrew a military-grade, semi-automatic handgun an assault weapon, if you will and, with intentionality and great theatre, leaned across his young bride, pointing the gun out the open bay and directly between dirt bags booze-flushed eyes.
Van vanished amid a plume of gray smoke as wheels locked, tires screeched and assault vehicle fishtailed jerking to a halt with taillights aglow skyward from the ditch.
Not a shot was fired....

Yeah, they were called "Blockwarte" in Nazi Germany.
I imagine that in the good ole U.S. of A., they'd have a life expectancy of about 24 hours.

“Yes, they will follow orders. Name a time of tyranny that they didnt.”
There are dozens of examples of the troops refusing to follow orders all over Eastern Europe, including the former Soviet Union. The most recent example was Libya in 2011 when Qaddhafi ordered his troops to fire on Libyans, and they refused. 75% of them deserted and took Qaddhafi and his mercenary army down.
For some reason, there’s small bunch of FReepers here who believe our soldiers and Marines are Nazi gestapo.
Tex is going to drop back to lead six and acquire and fire. Then land in Houston a hero.
Tracers work both ways...
Only if those civilians are unarmed. Name one instance where an armed population was overwhelmed by a military force so much smaller than itself. It has never been done.
A five second grenade is ALWAYS 3 seconds...
Y’all do realize that during the recovery efforts after Katrina, the government sent in police and other law enforcement agencies (in force) from wayyyyyyyyy far away...
That made it easier to justify the crackdowns they were experimenting with during that time...No real relationships with the indigenous civilian population...
bttt
I hope they're all "in touch".
Not all but many are. Many have formed “support” groups and stay in constant contact.
Well, the queer-fags will and the normal troops won't. That will probably be where the initial battle lines are drawn.
I’m already the Block Captain in my neighborhood. It’s called Neighborhood Watch.
Things that work together, can’t be shipped together....
There aren't any.
You are probably correct in your general conclusion that there are too many armed civilians for the Federal government to sustain a campaign of forcible subjugation,
That will not stop the Progressives from trying.
Progressives don't do math. They are grabbing for the gold ring of permanent rule over this country, and with every failure, they simply redouble their efforts. They will continue in this direction until they are removed from any positions of power. And they will not step down voluntarily.
This sort of miscalculation guarentees that events will go badly for everyone. There are plenty of contemporary examples of how this develops. Check the story in Yugoslavia, Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina, Mexico, Egypt, or Syria for some of the more extreme details.
There is a wealth of learning experiences in those stories. Of course none of that could ever happen here...
"I think they overestimate their chances" (Gen Moff Tarkin).
“That will not stop the Progressives from trying”
Walk into any college classroom and continue walking into any office infested with fat federal bureaucrats, then get back to us on whether or not you’d be comfortable going onto a hostile battlefield with those people.
I look forward to your answer.
Bump.
After a few block captains show up dead or just plain disappear, it might be hard to get more volunteer libs.
