Because you can’t starve us out
And you cant makes us run
Cuz we're them old boys raised on shotgun
And we say grace and we say Ma’am
And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn

1. B-4 the announcement plans & Marshall Law will be ready to be used if need be a few days later.
2. During that time the US Govt., her agencies will listen to chatter from home phones, cell phones, e-mail and even the mail.
3. To put down any actions starting to take place, Marshall Law will be put in place, the last one Obama signed. Why?
Simple it doesn't require any reasons to be the source of it's use. But you can check and see if I have that right. You can start here or do your own search...
Also there is one 1 from 2011 you need to read.
The last Marshall Law Obama signed in May of 2012 - Yahoo! Search Results
And your assuming this part of your scenario based on how you see it will prevail, I quote..
1, He isn't a dictator he is the POTUS and as commander in chief most if not all military personel will follow orders they receive.
Some might check home to be sure their families are not involved. But that would depend on several situations from the chain of command.
I can agree with some of what you said about the POTUS but in my reality your not playing wit a full deck of cards.
And I mean that in a friendly way Manitou, believe me. One thing I do know is when orders are given those it is given to say Yes Sir.
To do other wise means an Artical 15 or a seat in front of 5 officers while you are under arrest from the moment you defied the order, in a Court Martial that will strip you of everything if this order was given in times of War or National Security Issues.
Because in both one can be held for a death sentence.

Documents from the Continental Congress and the Constitutional Convention, 1774-1789

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776.
THE UNANIMOUS
DECLARATION
OF THE
THIRTEEN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
WHEN, in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's GOD entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the Causes which impel them to the Separation.
We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
All from page one.. If this is your answer to a simple question, again I ask why hasn't the American people reacted to replace any of our past leaders or the present ones, from both houses & the POTUS?
And both you Dave1 and Manitou, pass it over to allow for armed reaction when the American people have yet to use the one tool to achive what is in our best interest and could have avoided many of todays many problems, from our debt moving down wards.
Why is it when our most important documents, as I place both this and our
Constitution hand in hand.
This document allows use to replace our govt., at any time if we have enough people for it. Yet not once has it been tried...
American Memory from the Library of Congress))
So can you give me a good reason why it has not been done when our Congress & Senate have scored so low as they have in the last 8 years+?

I can not see a large enough except from the south reaction to bear arms and confront the US Govt., with the thought of securing enough ground to have the Govt., say we
I am sorry we can't come closer to any agreement than each sticking to their own opinions.
Which I find amusing, as that is what is happening right now today with both sides of the aisles. Which is, "
keep to the Party Line" and

give at all, period.
I like both of you a lot but on this I just can't see any winning by taking up arms and confronting the U.S. Govt., and it's Military.
And they don't need the basic troops to overwhelm any armed citizens meaning to take control of the Govt., when they have well trained Rangers, Special Forces, Night Hawks, Seals Teams, Special ops, and Delta Forces among others who do follow orders.
Now toss in all of the Tanks and Bradly's.. And that is just the Army guys.
One has to consider this as not all will say

to the orders given and from the military families side I doubt any or just a few in numbers would even consider picking up arms to confront the U.S. Govt.
Now think about the above before you come back with the same thinking please.
