So here is the question I give you. Is there a point where Americans have had enough? If that point came is there ever a a time where people with a new form of govt would ever win against the almighty fed? If states began to secede would they have the authority to use military supplies and equipment form their state? Or would the fed govt. just be too strong and need to be toppled be other form, such as a total economic collapse or an already weakened system from a war on our own soil? I just want opinions, I do not think that it will happen in my life time but just wondering what you guys think.

Thanks

I think the military would sit it out, if the fed and states got into a show-down. It would be a paper revolution.

Prince is considering getting the whole group back together and knocking out a Purple Rain tour.

Can't wait to hear Darling Nikki live again.

Let's go crazy...

All joking aside, I have heard that the small one in purple will not do that song since he has found the Lord.

so be it. I'll just break out my old cassette tape of Purple Rain, crank it up, and rip the knob off.

I do remember thinking Wendy was pretty hot back in the day. Chicks and guitars have always done that to me. I think her and Lisa score Heroes.

It all depends upon what the crux of the revolution centers on. If those in revolt are in revolt due to restricted weapons / hunting rights and perceived religious "persecution" then while the military might be on orders to put down such an insurrection, the actual Soldiers and small unit leaders would be hard pressed to actually carry out such orders.

Hopefully there is a peaceful revolt in the 2010 elections. The GOP better be firing on all cylinders.

some old radio station jingle about locking it in to their station and ripping the knob off. Wanna say it was a Richmond station, but don't really recall.
