He has a vested interest in making this point and whipping up fear in this regard. While I understand the point you are trying to make I'd say the odds of something happening like Klein is describing is less than .05%. If this was happening in Germany or the UK we would not have the same concerns as we would if it was happening in Afghanistan or Bolivia.
Which is why I framed the discussion as I did; just as a jumping off point to talk about where we think that line would be for coup territory. The thread is about discussing opinions.
