To: hope
I can see a military dictatorship happening in this country, but the military is smart enough to know that taking to take the guns from the gun owners in this country would be counterproductive to them for two reasons.

One, for the most part gun owners in this country currently supports the military.

Second, the pile of body bags in this country will be a mile high from the attempt.

Now if the General wants to stabilize this country right after seizing power of this country, he would first need to get rid of the IRS, EPA, ATF and most of the other socialist bureaucracies that make life miserable in this country.

Second, tell the gun owners of this country that they can keep their guns as long as they behave themselves and not try and start a revolt.

This is the easiest way from someone to pacify the rural gun owners from starting a gorilla revolt. The unarmed urban people who will scream bloody murder for getting rid of these socialist bureaucracies can be dealt with more direct methods.
