  • It is almost impossible. We are surrounded on two sides by large oceans and to the north by a vast mostly frozen country not unlike Siberia.

    The only remotely feasible possibility is from the South, and I highly highly doubt Mexico has the technology or manpower to even take over Arizona and New Mexico.

    Add in the fact that our country is gigantic, covered with military bases, contains thousands and thousands of reservists, and is filled with people who own flags and guns.

    It's just not happening. Invading Germany was hard enough after their forces were completely depleted and they were being attacked by the three biggest powers on Earth on two different fronts.

    tl;dr no f'ing way because we are two big and the geography is too difficult

    Just shocked we have a thread about the red dawn plot. Next can we discuss weather Lincoln actually killed vampires, and if so how many?

    Sorry fellow Nole but when being exceedingly smart allacky you cant mess up weather/whether.

    Not bad, I like that nickname.

    I don't need to explain why he's wrong though, this one is just self-evident. By referring to his president as a "douche-bag," the rest of his post is just invalid.

    Just for clarification-- it wasn't meant to be perceived negatively. Just didn't remember the exact letters/sequence.

    No worries.

    I'm just amazed that I haven't been called a terrorist on this board yet, since my username is 911 in roman numerals.

    Red Dawn had got me thinking, is this possible

    Obama will make that a greater possibility by taking weapons away.

    Obama's re-election drives gun sales

    Gun enthusiasts fear that the president will be more aggressive about gun control in his second term and implement a so-called assault weapons ban.

    Scoot.. You know damn well if any country came to Louisiana, they would regret that move.... Considering litterally every house, apartment and store has multiple guns.. I can't name 1 person in Louisiana that doesn't own a gun.. They'd be fricked.. Plus the Louisiana National Guard is the best guard in the country.

    If the invaders came via the west coast, they would be greeted with drivers licenses, democratic voter registration cards, and health care. The only things that they know how to protect are gay rights and illegal immigrants.

    Yeah but by the time they got to the mid west they would be wearing v-necks, spray tans, toms shoes, complaining that the breakfast milk came from a cow and not a soy bean or almond.

    I was more thinking of another nation working with Mexico. Say China starts shipping troops to Mexico for a land invasion, etc.

    Problem with that is that the US Air Force will just bomb the bejezzus out of wherever the troops are at, and the US Subs can sink any further transports.

    Only way the US gets invaded is if the country falls apart from the inside. I'm not talking about a president getting elected that 50% of us don't like, I'm thinking like the Pres, VP, Prez Pro Tem of the Senate, Speaker of the House and the Joint Chiefs get wiped out simultaneously and anarchy starts.

    Even then, it'll be hard for the US not to see an invasion coming from hundreds of miles away. As someone pointed out, Mexico isn't equipped to hold onto even the lower part of the South West, and any other opponent would have to come from across the ocean.

    People forget just how ginormous this country is. You'd need over a million soldiers to take over just one area, and to occupy the country you'd need . . . shoot . . . 15 million? 20? All while defending against drone strikes, AF bombings, and the US Navy pooping on all your reinforcements.

    Basically, unless the US is up against the entire world, I don't see the country being taken. Even in that case, there's the nuclear option; one US Nuclear sub can take out 1/3 or 1/2 of the world's major cities and I know the US has more than 1 of those subs.
