So you are under the assumption that government is benevolent towards its citizens then and always will be for time eternal? What facts can you present to convince me other than mere speculation and opinion?
Everything you just listed is true.
No, it happens in other places, as it has happened here in the past with the civil war. The perception of distance, is based on emotion in the eye of the gun owner.
More like UN troops would be used. As a former Marine I am very aware of what would happen if the chief of the executive told Marines to attack US Civilians. You see the Marines are a special force that can go to war at any time, any place without congressional approval. the Marines are the special forces of the president, one of the reasons they call Marines "The President's own." They are his own personal force with air, land, and sea capabilities and the ability to combine all three into a force of shock & awe. None of my brothers would EVER obey orders to attack american civilians on US soil. We all had those discussions and I can tell you that the Marine Corps just wouldn't do it.
Indica makes me very paranoid. I score very low on paranoia otherwise. My only problem besides bipolar, is slight antisocial thoughts. But my bipolar causes me to prattle. I used to have a lot more paranoia. I think psychologists confuse apathy for antisocial.
So, you just made my point. The US government would be unsuccessful in turning it's troops against it's own civilians. So that stock pile of weapons/ammo is for what again?
So he doesn't have to take a knife to a gun fight
You might have a reading comprehension problem or what i don't know, but perhaps you should read my previous post over and over and over again because it answers all those questions.
UN troops, eh? LOL!!
You don't think UN Troops ever come here or something? We train them.
What "facts" have you laid out that would substantiate your claim that troops are going to land on American soil and start a war with it's civilians?

I never said they were going to, it would be stupid of them to try when we have 250 million guns just laying around for any toddler to shoot up the local constabulary.
I'm not *trying* to make you out as tin foil hat wearing nutter, you're doing that all by yourself.
I can see logic and reason are beyond you, you have your opinions, they are shit, but you have them nonetheless.
I was quoting YOUR opinion ..........which I happen to agree is shit.
It isn't opinion on why we have a 2nd amendment, it is fact. We have it to defend ourselves from our attackers, whether it be a foreign army or our own government, that is why it is there.
