X2 on all ya said 'Kill. I also have talked with many in the various branches of military and law enforcement and have heard the same results as you.
I seriously think that the left do NOT really KNOW to what extent that 'they' have alienated themselves from the REAL 99%. 'They' live in total awe of themselves and are so totally out of touch with the real backbone of America, that they have fooled themselves into thinking they are invincible.
At the same time, We the People, should not fall into the false pretense that the Govmt would NOT try to enforce some sort of martial law, most especially under the current POTUS. My main point is that we should try all legal avenues before putting our selves, our police, and our military into very difficult positions.
I ABSOLUTELY encourage law abiding citizens to take measures to protect themselves, family, and friends from unfriendly and unlawful elements.
It all boils down to being EDUCATED on current events and involved in our lawful election process.
