It's funny that the first line of the oath of service is "I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic." We have some very serious enemies of the Constitution sitting in high offices in Washington DC that think our cornerstone manuscript is nothing more than a rag. I would say that makes them an enemy by definition.
amen to that brother. i too raised my hand and served. i went to desert storm and got to shoot at the iraqis, from an m1a1.

movin to the mountains tho may sound good and i do understand the tactical advantage. but as you said the public has a low tolerance for casultys. they may just up and use a tactical nuke, in my day it was from a humvee or an 8-inch. but they aint goin to nuke a city. i just think that with the way most will be armed, if at all, will be at best 12 guage shot guns and high power rifles. some yes will have better weopons but not the majority. these weopons will be much more suitable for urban warfare. those who we will be fighting, the m-16 will be the least of our wories. it will be urban-gurilla warfare at its finest. move to the mountains now but when the shit hits the fan go back to the city and help as many as you can to get out and find freedom. this may sond self centered but become the hero and patriot that gave everything to this country to make us all free men we read about.
