How do you stop the attacks from 50,000 feet, when it’s your own guys doing it?

American service members are not going to drop bombs on their own fellow citizens. They'd kill the guy issuing that order, first.

If the military were such unthinking automatons, Obama would have already used them to overthrow the country.

JimRob is a Navy vet. Why don't you ask him if he would have ever fired on Americans if ordered to do so? How about asking the rest of the vets here, or active duty Freepers? Your assertion is paranoid and ridiculous, Doughty.

That's why they want DREAMERS to become soldiers, they won't have such loyalty.

Do you remember Waco?

Evidently not.

Do you remember the Weavers?

Evidently not.

You need to give this more thought.

What you fail to take into account is how the media will frame these people as being. What you need to take into account how the government will frame them.

You think these folks will be seen by everyone as freedom fighters. No. They will be seen as a radical group armed to the teeth, challenging local law enforcement and other government agencies.

Look at the lack of accounting for Waco. That should make it clear just how much support we could expect from the public.

If you think folks would march on Washington, in time of nation emergency, what would meet them? Our armed forces would meet them.

This isn’t paranoid. The FBI sent snipers to Waco. They sent people there that pumped in a known flammable substance in the facility. It was a substance that was contraindicated for use with small children. It was known to be a lung irritant and would cause small children to have lung failure. It caused their lungs to excrete fluids and they would essentially drown.

Military helicopters were not supposed to be used. Tanks were not supposed to be used. Who drove those thanks, flew those helicopters?

Military personnel.

Any questions?
