Have commies ever taken over a country of armed citizens?
Report: Obama Regime Purging Military of Commanders They Donât Agree Withâ¦

>>In a letter to Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-Colo.), Secretary of the Army John McHugh said the briefing in April was an isolated incident and the material used was not sanctioned by the Army.
McHugh said it was a âmisguided attempt to explain that extremism is not limited to a single religion.â
Two weeks ago, several dozen active duty troops at Camp Shelby in Mississippi, were told the American Family Association, a well-respected Christian ministry, should be classified as a domestic hate group because it advocates for traditional family values.
Again, the military called it an isolated incident with a trainer using material that was not sanctioned by the military. <<
Sound familiar? IRS scandal? Same excuse. Oh no, this was just an isolated incident involving a few people who were doing it on their own. Yeah sure.
Even if the explanations are literally true, these incidents wouldn't happen without a clear understanding that attacking Christians and Tea Party groups would not lead to repurcussions. It is about the atmosphere that higherups establish, whether it is in the military or IRS.

If the military is told by obama to turn their guns on the American people, it looks to me like they'd do it. Just my opinion from observing things over the last several years.
Some people might just say i'm a right wing conspiracy theorist.
But those same people are getting ready to run a woman for president who spent the entire nineties complaining that there was a 'vast right wing conspiracy' out to get her.

I think it is more likely that they would use federal SWAT teams and groups like the FBI, DEA, BATF, etc. They already have experience repressing American citizens and are largely infused with the "us against them" mentality that might be lacking in the military.
I suppose so, Tao. When I read trolls as ridiculous as this: "Communism is here, and going into effect faster than communism did historically in other Countries... My question is what are we going to do to stop it, and restore the US Constitution so we can be truly free as our Founding Fathers demanded??"
I feel a certain obligation to counter troll!
And as a matter of fact, Jesus believed very much, according to the Bible, in what would be regarded today as tenets of communism. So, though I was trolling, I was at least trolling in an instructive sense.

"I have here in my hand a list of 205..."
I don't have strong objections. I know nothing about these commanders that are being sacked, do you? But I'm guessing that they are not in step with current policy. Everybody has to be rowing in the same direction to get much done. I do have strong objections to Obama's ultra vires activities, but he clearly has the authority to sack military commanders. That's perfectly legal.
I don't see that sacking a few commanders is going to do anything to shrink the Pentagon budget however. That's where we really need to concentrate. But it has to be done in a way that won't dump thousands on the street. A reasonable goal would be a fifty percent reduction in the pentagon's budget in ten years, with long lead times, for each announced reduction.

No he didn't.
Voluntarily giving your money to the church is not quite like having the gov't involuntarily take your money away from you, now is it. In fact, I think a person who could reason would find it to be the exact opposite.
And how does communism feel about the parable of the talents?
" For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them."
