Winds of revolution?

Has anyone else noticed that not only the rhetoric but general conversation has changed for the worse since the Newtown shooting? There have always been some crazy ideas coming from the extreme left and right but lately I've noticed that insanity seems to be infecting average citizens as well. People every where are talking rebellion, in bars, restaurants, shoping centers, online news sites, chat rooms, fitness clubs, the list could go on forever. From my observations it appears that the people are angry about health care, taxes, the economy, but mostly its gun rights and all the talk of restrictions and confiscation by the elected officals. Could an attack on the second amendment be the catalist that could launch this great nation into an armed rebellion?

If there ever was a time for revolution, it is when we have the twin disasters Obama and Biden and their disastrous policies!

good morning thegreek. from what i have read, the ammunition was being procured for the enforcement divisions of several federal agencies as well as to be used for target practice. this all sounds reasonable and considering the current question of sanity among the population, i personally would want as much ammunition , as i could carry if i were going after lawbreakers covered by the different agencies. as far as fema camps and coffins, after the last two natural disasters, it would make sense to have a central location in which to house and care for those that did not have somewhere to go and as you know we have to do something with the dead that are not going to be claimed. could all of this be used nefariously....sure can be. is it?... i don't know. what is apparent from this latest disastor is that we have not advanced within fema as much as i think we should have. i believe many of the victims are still digusted after the requisite political photo ops (which give beneficial publ

As far as a revolution goes. I do not remember the Social Security dept purchasing millions of rounds of ammo, FEMA camps or FEMA coffin reports in the past.. Can someone tell us what is up with that??

Mod, sorry I should have used the word began and not begin. Things began to get scary because of the comments section below the interview. Most comment sections are filled with a lot of common sence, some thought provoking statements and a small amount of lunacy. But under the Morgan/Jones interview it was different, they were filled with calls for violence from both sides with some of the worst coming from the antis. Since then I've noticed a simular slide on other news sites as well. Passions run rampant on this subject, add that to a general unrest in society over many other issues and we could be headed for a very difficult if not dangerious future.

Arms trade treaty, lts. have a great January thaw day.

moderation, frankly i am having diffuculty remembering posting anything about that subject. it is not under this heading. i took a moment to research the "treaty of 2012" and all i could find was information regarding a vote on the willingness to enter into an agreement concerning the exportation of certain firearms. from what i have read, we and several other nations have indicated non-interest at this time. the sticking point seems to be the sovereignty issue in giving a u.n. body governance over an individual nations constitution. should an agreement be entered, i would imagine that our own law enforcement agencies from the FBI to the ATF would most likely oversee enforcement within our borders. i feel certain that violations would be handled much the same way violated sanctions or agreements are dispatched now by the united nations. feel free to look into and post any corrections or ideas that you may wish to share.

BobDahler, combining does not equal confusion. i made no assertion that you were confused, but you must have combined since you set forth the parameter of the date. thank you for pointing out need for futher review. quite possibly i should have added "enacted" to the sentence. it appears that most of the executive orders pertain to civilain activity war time or extreme civil conditons, which in and of themselves directly violate the constitution. as tragic as some of the events happening today are, i do not think it warrants unilaterral action. since we need to deal with the here and now, the realization that the president apparently can exercise his will on the constitution and any other law is still very sobering in and of itself. we must rely on "this" congress to hold his powers in check. more sobering.

Confiscation will come in steps. 1st you put a huge tax on full-auto firearms so that no one can afford them, no a ban but just as effective. 2nd you require registraion of all new firearms and a permit to carry one. 3rd you ban a few firearms that look scary and make it illegle for private partys to sell a gun without doing a background check and registering it. 4th you ban more guns and require that all guns be registered and all gun owners get a permit on a yearly basis. 5th you ban all firearms and require that they be turned in. 6th since all guns are registered you have a list of who had them and who din'nt turn them in , so you go house to house and arrest them and confiscate the contraband.

I belive they are working on step 3 now.

Luv: If you haven't found any (other than Obama's) executive orders that have attempted to modify, clarify, or otherwise enforce our Constitution, you need to dig a little deeper into the history of our country.

As far as your assertation that Obama is the first President to utilize executive order that has Constitutional implications... That is absurd, and you should know it.

Of course such executive orders have occured in the past, some of which I agreed with, some of wich I didn't...

The reality is, ALL (with the exception of two or three) were accepted as Constitionially valid, regardless of the "outcome".

luvthesouth: I'm not confused by the term executive order, regardless of the nomenclature associated with it in various eras. The term used to describe it, doesn't alter it's effect or import as related to the Constitution.
