Just wondering. "all badges are redcoats" is quite a broad statement. Could you please clarify?
Because you come across as someone may jump to conclusions perhaps based on appearance, who knows. Please clarify.

Like another poster said. I don't think the people will stand up and fight. American's are too timid. I really hope I'm wrong, I want every single house to be a fire fight if they go through with confiscation. I just don't see it happening though.

better to have 13 guys (a fire squad), armed waiting until the traitors go to sleep.. Then bust their door down, shoot their dog, and take their weapons.
And tell them to never, ever wear a redcoat again or be hung

Thats a very broad statement.
I would have to differ on opinions with you. If they are go against their oath than that is one thing, but to lump them all in one category well that is another.

A lot of cops are going to be shot in CT if this goes as far as people think it might.
I recently moved to the great state of Texas, I know and talk to many of the local PD and sheriff's deputies, we have talked about this several times.
In March, PoliceOne conducted the most comprehensive survey ever of American law enforcement officers’ opinions on the topic gripping the nation's attention in recent weeks: gun control.
More than 15,000 verified law enforcement professionals took part in the survey, which aimed to bring together the thoughts and opinions of the only professional group devoted to limiting and defeating gun violence as part of their sworn responsibility.
Breaking down the results, it's important to note that 70 percent of respondents are field-level law enforcers — those who are face-to-face in the fight against violent crime on a daily basis — not office-bound, non-sworn administrators or perpetually-campaigning elected officials.
1.) Virtually all respondents (95 percent) say that a federal ban on manufacture and sale of ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 rounds would not reduce violent crime.
2.) The majority of respondents — 71 percent — say a federal ban on the manufacture and sale of some semi-automatics would have no effect on reducing violent crime. However, more than 20 percent say any ban would actually have a negative effect on reducing violent crime. Just over 7 percent took the opposite stance, saying they believe a ban would have a moderate to significant effect.
3.) About 85 percent of officers say the passage of the White House’s currently proposed legislation would have a zero or negative effect on their safety, with just over 10 percent saying it would have a moderate or significantly positive effect.
4.) Seventy percent of respondents say they have a favorable or very favorable opinion of some law enforcement leaders’ public statements that they would not enforce more restrictive gun laws in their jurisdictions. Similarly, more than 61 percent said they would refuse to enforce such laws if they themselves were Chief or Sheriff.
No but the people in DC are and some of the folks higher up in our military definitely are.

Ok but I respect most of the law enforcement I come in contact with and they respect me. I do live in Texas however. I was just hoping you could be a little bit more descriptive, unless you were trying to make such a broad statement. There are still forces for good believe it or not. But being that your form Tennessee which is a DHS stronghold, I completely understand where you are coming from. Please understand where I am coming from. Otherwise to me you just sound like a lunatic, no offense.
