Should Obama give such an order, there would be instantaneous mutiny within the ranks of our armed forces. Perhaps as many as a third of military personnel would be willing to follow such a blatantly tyrannical, unconstitutional order, but most would not.
The patriot majority within the US military would quickly arrest, detain, and even execute those who were intent upon firing upon their own countrymen, quickly followed by the arrest and imprisonment of all those in the chain of command (elected civilians included) who had anything to do with it.
Such an order would spell doom for the treasonous left in this country. The People are just barely containing themselves now. Directing military force against the civilian population of a secessionist state would ignite the second American Revolution, which the feds would lose.
This isn't 1861. There will be no move to stop any state from seceding through force.

Don’t mince words — you’re talking “military coup” here.
I sense the Obmmunists are worried about this, as well. Is it any coincidence that we’re seeing so many high-ranking military officers “retired”? Any coincidence about the rumored “loyalty oaths” (i.e., “would you fire on Americans if so ordered?”)?
Waco already is in the history books. What makes you so certain that we won’t see this repeated — perhaps numerous times in the future?
