Constitutional Rights

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but thecat is right. If you honestly think that the government turns on us and we would be able to fight them off with shotguns and rifles you are sadly mistaken.

You forget that the government isn't some magical entity, it's an organization of Americans many of whom believe in the 2nd amendment.

Do you think that the military will turn on the American public?

While true this has already been proven in many countries before. The army can and will turn on it's people if the government asks it to. It's what they are paid to do and drilled into thinking. You follow orders for the better cause. Now, while this works in the field while we are abroad, it would work the same here. Just saying. Some free thinking people would be like ...wait a min...but the grunts by and large would just follow the orders. Better you than me scenario.
