Greg Littell, writing for a Western Nevada journal called “The Union,” has said in a op-ed article that the idea of armed rebellion against a tyrannical United States would be impossible because of a perceived weapons disparity. Essentially, Mr. Littell believes that a militia conceivably armed with AR-15s would be forced to back down because this tyrant could threaten to use nuclear weapons. Therefore, the only “rational course” to take would be Gandhi-esque civil disobedience and that refusing to work would grind the tyrannical government to a halt. Let’s back up a little and really analyze what Mr. Littell is saying.
First of all, let’s not be Polly-Annish about this. Barack Obama has already enforced his will on federal and state governments repeatedly in order to instillĀ his liberal agenda on the American citizen. Between stuffing Syrian “refugees” into whatever corners of America will take them, attacking our Second Amendment rights, and repressing Christian Americans, Obama could already be called something of a tyrant. All that really remains between Barack Obama leaving office in 2016 and Barack Obama becoming President-For-Life is the support of the military. However, Obama has repeatedly slandered military leaders and attacked military establishments and traditions, so it is safe to assume the military would not back an Obama-led dictatorship. Any overtures of retaining his Presidency after the end of his office term would be quashed by the dutiful generals who serve on behalf of the American people.
Secondly, why would soldiers launch nukes on their own homes? Greg Littell is laboring under a literary fantasy more befitting a Tom Clancy novel than domestic politics. Mr. Littell’s genocidal fantasy may work for his own whims to quash Obama-dissenters, but fails to consider that the men behind the button are better Americans than he is and would be unwilling to act so coldly on their own families. One wonders what Mr. Littell imagines he would do?
Let’s accept the scenario Mr. Littell has given us. What would you do if Obama wrested control of the military, enacted martial law and you’ve taken up arms to cast him out of power? If this is the case, how would patriots get around federal maneuvers to launch nuclear missiles on American cities?

How else can Obama stay in office
I say we amass NOW while there is still time, and protest MLK Jr. style, 10 MILLION STRONG…he KNOWS that WE know he is a TRAITOR…head it off before it comes to a civil war, which is EXACTLY what Nobama wants…

Im in when n where, Gettysburg again, lol
if we want to be rid of BO, we’re better off letting him be. There won’t be enough time to impeach him and an armed rebellion would give him the excuse he craves to declare martial law, disarm everyone, and suspend elections. DO NOT start an armed rebellion.
War is coming to America, the military must make the choice to honor their oath to protect American citizens from all enemies within and with out, or to defend the regime/govt that has become our enemy, and the enemy of the military. This will be the deciding factor in Americas survival
How do you think they would disarm everyone? Do you believe everyone would just willing give up their weapons?
declare martial law, federalize the state’s national guard, and order them to disarm us (along with the police.) it just looks to me like the govt. is trying to create the conditions that would make people want to revolt AFTER the govt. is already ready for the revolt. like we’re being manipulated into revolution to support a power play…? agents from foreign nations have always sought to start a civil war here because a nation that’s been either disarmed or is in the middle of a civil war would be a weakened nation “ripe for plucking.” I’ve seen stuff (not sure how credible) on the net discussing mercenaries that have infiltrated the country to help disarm people as well. I think that 13 more months of Obama is a small price to pay to avoid an armed insurrection that would last years (and keep him in office).
When he pushes are troops against us and if they refuse that’s why he has all the immigrants.
Everything from racial division to making Christian’s considered a terror group (which is a JOKE). Everything the U.S. is about is being attacked…guns
They want them and we are keeping them at all costs.
He wants to declare ml…
He can’t even f**e concern for this country any longer. He is tired of the charade that he has been living. You can only live a lie for so long.
We haven’t taken the bait, so he will continue to go to even more extremes.
He is and has been an imposter.
What I can not understand is the fact that people think he is a good president?!?!?!?!
To start with, launching nukes on American soil period would be bad for anyone who survived. Why would anyone in their right mind do that to themselves because it would surely effect them too. Food sources contaminated, live stock & wild game, Water supplies. I mean you might as well be pulling the trigger on a gun thats stuck to your head.
