What if G.W. Bush declared martial law and made himself into a dictator?

Question

I'm very interested in opinions from gun control advocates. Specifically, what their plan of action would be?

Answer 1

What many people don't realize is that Congress actually passed a law that would allow the President to suspend elections, and declare martial law if the U.S. was ever under a threat/attack that endangered national security.

Answer 2

Abe did it and look what happend to him

Answer 3

wow, I've thought about that.  He's done all these crazy things,  and has tried to dissolve the constitutional and rob us of our rights and since he abuses executive privilege so much and he's a war criminal, I was thinking there won't be any next president.  We'll have Bush, King of America.  He's already a dictator.  Here's another thought:  What if al Quaeda are Bush's people?

Answer 4

rabble rabble rabble!!!!!

Answer 5

It would be almost impossible for him to do so, Congress would never allow it.

Answer 6

Wait wait wait.... your rights are being infringed on? Which rights are you referring to? How is Bush infringing upon your rights?

You must be referring to the PATRIOT Act, which CONGRESS approved...remember, Bush didn't do this all on his own...

Answer 7

So much ignorance, so little ammunition and spaces to hide the bodies.  LOL!  For me, I would die for my freedom just like my ancestors did.  Bravery and honor seem to be lacking in this country unless you join the military and get trained for it.  God bless America.  The land of the free to be complacent and oblivious.

Answer 8

What do you mean, "if he declared marital law....?" h**l, I thought the stupid Bozo did that a long time ago, didn't he? I mean, why do you think the price of gas is allowed to be so high? Or why there are innocent American soldiers dying in Iraq each day? Or why we are still practiciting torture on prisoners of war? That would never be allowed under a true democracy. No President could get away with such flagrant abuse of powers, as this joker has managed to do. History will prove that George W. Bush was a loony-bin despot who successfully managed to dupe the American public with fear, needless wars, and economic disasters. And while all this was going on, his Oil-rich, gun-slinging and cigar-smoking, buddies made fortunes. Like the lyrics of a song called, American Pie.  "Good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye, singing this will be the day that I die."

Answer 9

The other 2 parts of the government would laugh at Bush and send him to his room.  Gun control would have zero to do with this situation.

Answer 10

His paid mercenaries would knock on your door and tell you to get into the truck.  Then they would commandeer your property for themselves and put you on a train with handcuffs in the walls and take you to a concentration work camp where you would harvest corn for ethanol.

Howzabout that?

If they come to tell you to leave your home, don't do it.

Answer 11

Go along with him for the reason that in reality people want oil for gas for their cars. What Bush would have done first anway would have been ti build up a cult of worship around the automobile. Set up armed forces hired by car companies and then through propaganda set up an idea that to join units of soldiers working for the companies and to serve a tour in Iraq for a car was good. An idea centered around blood for oil.  People already have gone along with him because he was what they want he is what they are. Unless they wish to give up what they have and use an alternitive energy source.

Answer 12

He cant cuz the senetars have to pass the law unlike ancient rome

Answer 13

Your constitutional rights have not been compromised in any way, so the premise of your question is too flawed for the question to merit a response.

Answer 14

What are you talking about Hilary would be all for that  ...seeing as she went along with most of his bullshit any way

Answer 15

He would be arrested for unconstitutional actions.

Answer 16

We would soon find out how the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution would apply to everyday life!
