Is It Likely That There Will Be a Violent Overthrow of Our Government?

I called both senators' offices for VA where I live and told their reps that I would NOT support either of them in their next elections if they support this bailout bill. Baby steps, I know, but it's what I have to work with. :)

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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security

Nazi concentration camps used fluoride to make prisoners very passive and submissive. This, plus public school & mass media brainwashing is a very good recipe for implementing and sustaining a fascist dictatorship. The only fight and intelligence that I see anymore comes mostly from the type of folks that frequent the Daily Paul.

The puny weapons that Americans are allowed to keep are no match for the high energy weapons the government have that can microwave an entire town and all of its occupants to a crisp. I'm old and won't have to live through most of what is coming. In the recent primary election, Americans gave their overwhelming approval and support for the continuation of the NWO and fascism. Even if I could, I would not trade places with anyone much younger than myself. I am sickened and saddened by the ultimate fate being inflicted on the world. My grief has prevented me from getting a decent nights sleep for years. I try to warn people and they all laugh and call me a nut-case. It will take a miracle to turn things around.

"It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." Samuel Adams

as any discussion of such a possibility could result in federal conspiracy charges, should such a revolution occur.

While I'm certain you do not perceive it this way, there's nothing to stop the President (especially THIS President) from purceiving it as a threat, declaring you a terrorist, confiscating your property and jailing you without charges.

A threat is like a loaded gun; don't pick it up unless you intend to use it.

And it has nothing to do with the weaponry or anything else of that matter. One accurate citizen with a rifle can take out ten soldiers when defending.

The reason a revolt wouldn't work is because Americans are spineless, soft, and weak. I couldn't see a typical 20 y/o brat standing a sentry post for 12 hours at a time during bad weather. I couldn't see a typical 20 y/o brat maintaining the discipline, morale, and control needed for such a fight. I couldn't see a typical 20 y/o brat having the resolve to go at something so grandiose and difficult for a long period, particular with the large losses that would be incurred at the onset. And I certainly cannot see a typical American 20 y/o willing to go without the creature comforts they've come to expect: "What? No central air? No XBox Live? Fuck this."
