Like I’ve heard said more than once: “You gotta get out of the tank to take a crap sometime.

Or when you're about to be cooked because it's on fire. Look at how the Finns dealt with tanks during the winter war.

Any Marine who’s given orders to fire upon American citizens combating the Fascist takeover of America better think long and hard about whose side he or she is on.

He’s not condoning gun confiscation or the use of military against citizens, but predicting the outcome. I’m glad to see so many Freepers disagree.

What so many of the 'You can't fight tanks and jets with your stupid guns, guntards' miss is the larger picture:

The moment that tanks and jet fighters attack US civilians, it'll be broadcast across the planet in realtime, and at that instant the United States isn't the United States anymore. It'll be the end of full faith and credit and respect in anything and everything related to the United States of America by both our allies and enemies. It'll set chaos in motion to the point that the government will have it's hands so full of problems that they'll almost immediately seek to undo what they unraveled in the first place.

To start: the Oligarchs who declare what the US dollar is worth just because they say what the US dollar is worth won't be able to control that anymore. Not when everywhere in America looks like Waco.

Besides, there won't be a shooting campaign if 'Civil War II' were ever to happen here. It'd be a constant bombing campaign like the Baader-Meinhof/Rote Armee Faktion gang of 1970s Europe magnified times 100,000 and far more effective. Every town in America will have it's own seething IRA gang. Every government entity down to the very last US Postal Service mailbox would be regarded as an enemy target.

Sooner rather than later, the homes of the families and friends of law enforcement and soldiers would be identified. Hit lists would spring up on Twitter and Google Maps. Soldiers would have a choice between bivouacing indefinitely near power stations and bridges and airports to prop up the rotten government who's simultaneously ordering the mass murder of US citizens or going home to their own families. The Highway Patrol wouldn't dare venture out onto highways. The kids in the National Guard would say "I didn't sign up for this crap."

Almost immediately, the world would see how weak and ineffective the domestic power of the US government is. All they'd be holding is a bunch of useless laws written on worthless paper in their hands next to ever-increasingly worthless piles of paper treasury notes. By comparison, Mexico would look like a stable country. Canada might become an instant super power overnight.

This nation -- particularly the urban metro liberals -- couldn't endure thirty days without power and water and groceries and Venti lattes and CVS Pharmacy and Costco and Whole Foods and cigarettes and liquor and Netflix and having to go to a natural running stream to refill their bong water.

... and from the depths of Hell, Osama bin Laden will be laughing proudly of his achievement that he set in motion to shatter the United States into fifty powerless fractured Balkanized fiefdoms, just as he prophesied.

Anyone and everyone who hopes for some idiotic 'Civil War II' -- Progressives versus hated Conservatives and vice-versa -- needs to take a BIG step back and rid their minds of the poisonous notion of raising weapons against their fellow countrymen. Absolutely everyone from top to bottom will be immediately sorry it happened the moment it began.

I will have nothing to do with it.

Ol’ Che may have been a commie/marxist thug, but his guerilla warfare book was a fascinating read.

More likely it will be nine platoons of para-military

I have the feeling many of the swat types are comfortable when they have superior numbers, personal protection and fire power, but wouldn't be so gung ho with battle after battle reducing their numbers.

“...probably will be wearing bras!...”

Not when they want men to follow...the natural look will point the way forward.

You are not going to take on a platoon of Marines with state-of-the-art automatic weapons.

I'll put my uniforms in sight of my brothers, then I will fight them if necessary.

No, but those Marines took an oath to uphold the Constitution

Don't bet your life on that.

And, most of them are gun owners as well. The ones I know wouldn't follow an order that spits in the face of everything they have sacrificed to preserve.

The day will come when the government fires upon American citizens on American soil. There will be an excuse. It will be over second amendement rights.

I don’t see too much of the “boating accident” joke on here.
