Nope the communication blackouts will make the seizures possible.You will not know about it until days or weeks afterwards. How will you protect your neighbors (miles away?) if you do not know of the threat? How can they take our guns if gun owners know about it? They cannot. Be aware of this specific contingency: a communication blackout, including the jamming of ham radio. If the load hits the squirrel cage count on this happening.
They have weapons that can destroy us and our popguns in seconds. All this cowboy talk about taking to the streets is so much nonsense. They would send the dogs first. Then the police. Then the army. And the army will obey Obama with few exceptions. They have the means to win. Talk of some spontaneous citizen backlash is nonsense. The lady here who described her friend's son being trained to obey is telling you all the truth.
All these nitwits talking about leaving their families undefended while they march off to be devoured in seconds by Obama’s police state is the height of foolishness. I understand the desire to fight this stuff, but an outnumbered army needs cunning, not boasting and bravado.
