does it occur to anyone that the biggest threat to the US is a divided nation with paranoid people wanting to engage in a civil war. other nations know they cannot defeat us in an all-out military war, but if they can provoke our own citizens into fighting each other, they can simply set back and watch the country implode...and for them?...mission accomplished without firing a shot.

I can definitely agree DHS is looking more and more like the new Gestapo. But I just can't see a gun grab at this point. From my perspective, it isn't necessary to disarm civilians, anyway. Just create more and more ammunition shortages, and drive prices through the roof.
