BM,
If it does go that far, you might just as well pick up your best piece and start blasting when they ring the bell. You'll have little to lose because you will have already lost it. If you project Katrina on a nationwide scale, there will be blood by the tanker load. Who in their right mind would want to live in a society like that? Bill T.
Much better option is to not be there when they show up.
then YOU can pick the time and place to "start blasting".
Trust me, you odds of survival will be higher.

If you are correct then there is nothing possible we can do about it. If we take that as fact, then our options are to go out in a blaze of glory for a hopeless cause, or raise the new flag and survive.
I don't think that is what you are trying to tell us, but I could be wrong?
"I know not what course others may choose, but as for me, GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH."
"Live FREE or Die, there are fates worse than death.."
"It's better to die on ones feet than to live on ones knees"
"Better red than dead"
Pick one.
