Coup d'etat of our own government, good idea right about now?

Question

What do you think? The future looks gloomy...

Answer 1

Only for the the tin-foil helmet types, living at mom's at age 35, dreaming of becoming generals in the new government

Answer 2

Not a good idea and never will be a good idea.

Anybody who wants to try this effectively wants to demolish the Constitution.

Answer 3

By whom?  For what purpose.  How is the act defined so we all know when it is achieved?  Overthrowing the government might be the easy part as in Iraq.  Creating a government or social contract after a coup might be the hard part.

Answer 4

I would have to agree entirely.  We the People have let our power diminish while the government power has expanded beyond its means.  We must go back to a Constitution based government and hold the politicians to task, meaning that if they violate the Constitution in any way they get significant jail time.

Answer 5

The future looks gloomy? Contrary to what the media rams down my throat day after day, I'm doing fine. I'm employed, paying my bills, going to school, making my house payments, sending my daughter to school...my life is going fine.

Then again, I'm trying, not looking for Him to save me...
