I'm not saying that anyone is going to take up arms against our military when they come for us. Everybody I talk to is aware of the military's lack of interest in turning on our own citizens. However, I have had several people from different groups point out something: Groups like the Black Panthers. Our Pres. was a "community organizer," and we have already seen fringe groups acting in intimidating ways without retribution from government. What if ...
Interesting thought. The government will have a huge problem if Holder and Obummer let something like that happen. The first person that stands up to whatever group of thugs is trying to force the issue will require a response from law enforcement. The rank and file are trying desperately to stay out of the fight as best as possible, while the administrators run thier mouths. So then the cops start turning on each other, which gets the National Guard called in. It could all fall apart quickly after that, which may be the plan all along.
Then you have to ask, what are the battle lines? During the Civil War the country was fairly evenly divided North/South. Something like this would never be that clear cut. Large cities in one camp and the rest of the country in the other? Take MD for example. At the state level they are anti-gun, big government, but on a county by county look it isn't that way. CA is the same way. LA and SF basically OWN the state legislature, and will NOT issue CCWs and are DEEPLY Democratic. Then you go to the Central Valley or Northern CA (Tehama, Shasta, Kings, and Tulare Counties) and the Sheriff is more than happy to issue a permit (at least while I was there) and was pro-gun. Even Fresno County, with a BAD gang problem and other "inner-city" problems would issue CCWs to people without a huge hassle if you were smart about the application. I think the Nation would end up divided from the center with the Southwest and Plains States being "free states", while the coastal states decsend into chaos.
