and as robert said what are the warning signs for when you will be stripped of your civil rights? this has nothing to do with the hurracane. Please tell me knower of all

Well, I suspect the governor declaring martial law might be a clue. That would be the initial step in possible suspension of constitutional rights. As for warning signs prior to the declaring of martial law, signs of imminent natural disaster, bank runs, food runs, gas runs. People start hoarding and it's going to fall apart fast.

so are you still in CO?

With the #Occupy thing going, if that becomes a riot we are in a martial law setting.
We could have empty gun safes by 0600 tomorrow.

KATRINA! From what I witnessed National Guard was clearing I59 South by 0500. They were there in a purely supportive role. Yes, It was Martial Law. Local PD and Sheriffs unlawfully seized weapons, and the NRA handed them their tails in the court three years later. On a lighter note, those that should worry about a modern seizure, should be those that frequent firearm forums, have ccw's, or title II's.

I've had a few people try to tell me that it's bound to happen with our final pull out from Iraq as we now have a military that is well trained in urban warfare.

Do I think it will happen? I'll go with usual answer. I don't know if it will happen but I do know that I don't trust my government. I guess you could say that it wouldn't surprise me. The Occupy movement could be the catalyst if it turns violent.

Why are you acting like such a jerk?

I posted on this topic about a year ago with links and information regarding the Pentagon deploying 40,000 US troops on US soil in preparation for an economic meltdown or attempted government overthrow or other similar unrest and stated that these were 'potential' situations. This is how it starts. 40k now so that people get used to seeing them paroling the streets every now and then and slowly ramp it up until it's complete occupation. Between tighter restrictions on firearms being the norm and soon the federal troop occupation being the norm what's left?
