Only in the Thunderdome. But the citizen has an equal chance to get the president.
Evidently he does. Obama has killed 2 that I know of, one that needed killing and another that was a 16 year old American citizen born of a Muslim nut. This is too much power for any one man to have and should be legislated against. I’m fine with killing the enemy on the battlefield during a firefight no matter what citizenship he holds. I am a bit less sanguine about Obama or any POTUS making lists of American citizens to be assasinated. Killing 16 year olds not on any wanted list crosses a big line but the left are hypocrites and the right doesn’t have the wherewithal to make the argument that Obama crossed a big line when he assasinated that kid. And collateral damage doesn’t excuse it.
Guess they haven't noticed Calypso Louie. I remember H. Rap Brown preaching revolution on street corners holding a rifle, he wasnt arrested as I recall.
There you go. Post of the day.</sarcasm>
However, I still say that historically, and legally, if it is decided that a military threat exists, that threat can be dealt with BY OUR MILITARY!
It does not matter if the enemy combatants are citizens or not.
They can be shot for taking up arms. They can be shot for acts of violent rebellion.
Would you prefer a blood bath, if we try to arrest a small army on our own soil?
Our problem, currently, is that our Commander in Chief can not be trusted with the same powers we gave to President Lincoln.
