The army is made up of the people ;). By the time it came to that, there would not be much army.

Exactly, so how exactly will government take over without the army?

 

 

It's not government that needs to take over, it's the people who need to take over government.

I am not suggesting we are there yet, but as out founders predicted, that day will come. When it does, weapons will be needed.

That's exactly what I'm asking. Withuot the army, why would we need to even put an effort in taking over the government? They won't be able to resist without the army itself, which as you pointed out, is made of people.

 

 

Because the government itself grows to powerful. Not that they will do anything by force.

For example, and I am not saying they will do this, but what if Congress passed a law that said any business that turns a profit over 5 million dollars will be taken over by the government. It goes to the President, and he signs it. Then the supreme court upholds it.

If that happened, it would be time to overthrow the government.
