That history occur ed in countries and cultures with hundreds of years of blind obedience bred into the populations.

The same mistake that millions, now dead, made thinking "It can't happen here, we're different."

This isn't based on culture, but on basic human nature. Human nature is the same here as it was in Soviet Russia, China, Cambodia, Nazi Germany, Turkey, etc. And if you think that the populations of NY, NJ, MA, CT, MD, IL, etc. don't have the vast majority who will support the tyrant, you're making another mistake. I reiterate history does not agree with you.

I hope you're wrong and as to the states you listed - don't know, don't care. Here in Texas we have a "history" of not taking crap lying down.

I know that when I was in uniform, either as a E1 or E8 I would not fire on American citizens.
