Fact is, if they obey orders against the nation they swear to defend, theyre the traitors. We had one revolution so far, if another ones in the future so be it. Kinda stupid to think it wont happen.

The military wants people that jusy obey orders. That works good over seas. I'd bet money it wont work right here against Americans on a big scale.
Waco & Ruby Ridge mightta been litmuses for it.

No, I mean leave. Why stay if you dont like the laws?

Montana is not talking of leaving because they dont like it here, only because of contract violations. You on the other hand dont believe in American law.

We shouldn't let montana get away so easily. I say we pawn them off to canadians who've been scarfing up real estate there left and right.
20 trillion sound right to y'all?

Assuming the army soldiers agree with this... remember the Army takes an oath to defend the constitution and states have that right to secede.

I think another civil war is over due. Rights, the constitution and free people fighting against the government who is hell bent on destorying everyone's individual rights and ignore the constitution. The media would have some interesting coverage I think on this topic and the outrage of the US Army abusing it's power on it's citizens would be very interesting. Funny how States and People believe in defending the constitution and rights are now the enemny. Hmmmmm I wonder what country we live you in? I find that very interesting. Did you notice when people are armed Government seems to keep themselves in check and when they try to disarm us they find it very difficult. The Governments solution to Gun Rights like the Nazi's and other Communists/Socialist countries is to make the people willing believe guns are bad the Government will take care of you. History shows what happens to people who are unarmed.

Think about any other amendment in the Bill of Rights and ask yourself that same question. Then you'll understand why people get upset when you start talking about curtailing rights.

Exactly. If the guy didn't have a gun, he could have made a homemade bomb, or he could have driven a car into a building or a crowd of people. Banning guns won't stop desperate people from committing desperate acts.
