Right this was the absolute appropriate response. I cant find the pic but they were rolling through the streets pointing rifles into anyone's windows they wanted too. Entering and searching any house they wanted to. You cool with that?

I figure most will have between seconds to zero time to react.  Odds are you will still be asleep. You may hear your dogs barking and getting silenced, if that.  They roll in fast, do they not?  

And then, given seconds react, think, consider. Is your first thought put on armor and fire at...  well... who are you firing at and why?  You have almost zero information.

That's why trip wires are another consideration.  If you hear it, you can just roll over and go back to sleep. In the morning you can try to piece together what it was.

Or they plant shit on your property. It'll be something like "Oh look, I found a baggie of crack and heroine hidden near your front door. I am searching your home, peasant." Suddenly they find some Saturday night special with a body on it, which you obviously never saw in your life.

Do you think this is the first group of bad guys to touch American soil?

The US fought the entire British army on US soil in 1812, they burned down Washington D.C and occupied our cities. The constitution survived that, but it should be sacrificed as the feet of modern day pussies trembling over a pair of teenagers and pressure cooker.

Got it.

this is understated and absolutely correct.  Personally, I believe this mindset is fairly pervasive among fed-up law abiding conservatives - that once that last straw lands on their back, no holds are barred.  I can only assume you and I are not the only ones to get that sense and that is ultimately what's fueling the fear among the ruling class, and this theater we're watching now.

They know conservatives are pissed off and have been pushed to the brink.  Seen the videos of militarized DC the last few days?  Yeah, they're scared.  Perhaps rightly so.

Quoted:If anyone thinks they can stand a chance fighting invading UN blue helmets or the Chinese Army, they should ask themselves if they can handle federal agents and all their toys first.
View Quote

Most people would have less hesitation of resisting UN blue helmets than the FBI.
If there are UN forces going door to door, people will more likely react to it as an invasion.
The FBI and local LE aren't considered invaders.

People will fold, one by one. Everyone will be waiting for someone else to "start it".
