This doofus doesn't even know that an affirmative vote by 2/3 of the states is required to amend the Constitution.

Article V

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate

***But they would undoubtedly bring in foreign troops, who would be armed.***

Never happen. The US military rank and file wouldn't allow it. Target rich environment would be an understatement. Politicos who went along with such a scheme would be dead men walking. The patriotic element of American citizenry would be overnight guerrillas. After the initial "shock" that our benevolent leaders would dare such a thing, I believe it would become a world-shaking revolutionary epoch.

Their idea would be to get the US military all overseas.

I think so too, but the power-hungry globalalist tyrants may just get a little too greedy and try it anyway.

"...the power-hungry globalalist tyrants may just get a little too greedy and try it anyway."

I've been pretty testy, lately.
I know what my response will be: Bring it on, pumpkin! Let's see what it's worth to ya.

I see ther you have a steaming POS. Might I suggest something with less heat?

[Militiaman7]

I've really tried to come up with something witty as a reply but for the life of me I can't.

Good one.

LOL!

Care to write him and ask why he writes titles that don't match the body of articles?

We're getting some heat from our bean-counters about all the COMPLIMENTARY memberships, but John A is prime material.

John, pick up your free pass at the camp gate.

CAMP GUNFREE.
A common sense and historically proven way to keep those dangerous and destructive GUNS out of YOUR life.
MEMBERSHIPS AVAILABLE NOW!
Details below

Concerned about the easy availability of guns in our society?

Alarmed about the "gun nuts" and other freedom wackos the government allows to run loose?

Wish the government would just repeal the Second Amendment and confiscate all the guns because you believe sensible people shouldn't suffer because of some idiotic notion about some antiquated “right?”

While we can't take the guns away from the people, we CAN take the people (or at least SOME of them) away from their guns.

At CAMP GUNFREE, we have created an atmosphere of near-total tranquility where you and your family will experience the benefits of a GUN FREE environment.

The unique main gate at Camp GunFree. Most arriving camp guests never see this view from their comfortable rail cars.

Each of our camps is a gated community designed to keep guns away from camp guests. Firmly enforced security measures ensure that these dangerous and destructive devices are kept outside. Each camp boasts 24 hour, 7 day a week sentries and state-of-the-art enclosure systems, guard dogs, trenches and surveillance equipment to absolutely GUARANTEE that no firearms enter the facility. Rigidly controlled access ensures that no guns can ever be smuggled in.

No cost has been spared to ensure that Camp GunFree remains gun free.

All camp members are given distinctive uniforms to distinguish them from any gun-toting barbarians who might attempt to evade our security measures. Each camp member is also assigned a distinctive ID number to ensure that only the right people are allowed within the camp.

Room and board are provided to each member in exchange for rewarding tasks designed to provide a sense of accomplishment and to demonstrate that large numbers of people CAN exist in a gun violence free community.

Camp members engaged in one of our many fun-filled organized work activities.

The current headlines prompt us to remind you that there has NEVER been a shooting by a student in any of the camp schools and we can GUARANTEE that there never will be!!

Following the link, the actual title is:Time to Shoot the Second Amendment

Subtitled:It's time for the war on terror to take away our guns I agree that the title is misleading, but not as misleading as the title of this thread.
