I think the impetus behind the spike in gun sales had more to do with the realization of this possibility than the probability of future gun control.

Well...looting and burning what’s left of a depressed economy is always the best thing to. If this happens, is Dear Leader fair game then?

“military force against hostile groups inside the United States.”

Seems to me the government is the hostile entity here.

Domestic enemies. The Democrats threaten riots if Obama didn’t win. The Supreme Court is afraid to look at his Constitutional eligibility due to fear of mobs and riots. We, as a free nation, are in perilous times.

Can’t happen here? Remember New Orleans. Remember the folks who got angry that the water they were given wasn’t iced and the MREs were unacceptable. It’s going to happen here in urban areas and it won’t take much for it to happen.

I get unnerved by the constant CT reports of looming civil unrest and widespread mayhem by folks similar in nature to the financial elites who repetitively insist nobody should be using the “D” word (when they are the only ones bringing it up).

While he said the Posse Comitatus Act limits the military's role in domestic law enforcement, he referenced a 1994 U.S. Defense Department Directive (DODD 3025) that gives military commanders authority during domestic emergencies to "save lives, prevent suffering or mitigate great property damage," according to the report.

And that directive came down from where? The Commander in Chief, the Slickmeister himself?

Of course, Obama's Civilian Security Force will not be covered by Posse Comitatus and therefore free to shoot us at will. Our troops will be otherwise engaged and unable to aid us. We're on our own!

I have been saying for some time now that this WILL happen..I think the handwriting is on the wall. The libs, with the elistist Obama, are pushing the envelope as far as they can and it is up to average citizens to stop them.

We would have already seen footage of bank runs except that now with online banking people can get access to their money without physically going to the bank. Of course, if that shuts down, I expect to see some really nasty riots...

When will they start on the criminals who overstay
their visas or just invade?

The above groups kill over 3,000 Americans a year
and the rapes, drunks hurting Americans, the child
molesters all are higher than the total of 911 and
the Americans lost in the middle east.

There was something about a week or 2 ago, about them bringing 20,000 troops home, to train for domestic or homeland situations.

The National Guard is supposed to be our homeland defense, not the army or marines.

Seems more and more as though things have been WEEELLL thought out, and planned for, for quite some time. For just such an "emergency".

Martial law is defined as: military rule or authority imposed on a civilian population when the civil authorities cannot maintain law and order, as in a time of war or during an emergency.

Hitler turned Germany into a Nazi dictatorship through executive orders.

Executive Order 10995: All communications media are to be seized by the Federal Government. Radio, TV, newspapers, CB, Ham, telephones, and the internet will be under federal control. Hence, the First Amendment will be suspended indefinitely.

Executive Order 10997: All electrical power, fuels, and all minerals well be seized by the federal government.

Executive Order 10998: All food resources, farms and farm equipment will be seized by the government. You will not be allowed to hoard food since this is regulated.

Executive Order 10999: All modes of transportation will go into government control. Any vehicle can be seized.

Executive Order 11000: All civilians can be used for work under federal supervision.

Executive Order 11490: Establishes presidential control over all US citizens, businesses, and churches in time of "emergency."

Executive Order 12919: Directs various Cabinet officials to be constantly ready to take over virtually all aspects of the US economy during a State of National Emergency at the direction of the president.

Executive Order 13010: Directs FEMA to take control over all government agencies in time of emergency. FEMA is under control of executive branch of the government.

Executive Order 12656: "ASSIGNMENT OF EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS RESPONSIBILITIES", "A national emergency is any occurrence, including natural disaster, military attack, technological emergency, or other emergency that seriously degrades or seriously threatens the national security of the United States. Policy for national security emergency preparedness shall be established by the President." This order includes federal takeover of all local law enforcement agencies, wage and price controls, prohibits you from moving assets in or out of the United States, creates a draft, controls all travel in and out of the United States, and much more.

Martial law can be declared due to natural disasters, Y2k Crisis, Stock Market crash, no electricity, riots, biological attack, .... anything leading to the breakdown of law and order.

Martial Law Executive Orders

Regime Change in D.C. in order to "save lives, prevent suffering or mitigate great property damage."

Of course those in charge of our “government” will be the ones defining “hostile groups.” Groups such as the NRA, no doubt. Still wonder why the Founders had such a fear of standing armies? When troops become the tool of a thug, rogue government, as they did in New Orleans (troops of police, etc) citizens rights become null. And leave it to our straight-arrow MSM to bury the story of guns of law abiding citizens being confiscated by those “government officials.”

Isn’t this what the National Guard is for? The military has no business doing this.
