A friend of mine was a human shield in Iraq before the lovely "shock & awe" started, she said that as she sat praying with a group of Iraqis many were saying that it would never happen "the United States will never do this to us", very soon after the bombing started.

I was in the military. every unit I was in has been deployed to Iraq/Afganistan including infantry battalions in South Korea. (Whos watching the DMZ??) Our military is stretched very thin. In order to round up the population of a MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREA (capitalized for emphasis) you would need 10 military divisions.. Where are these troops going to come from?
How would you transport all these people? In my neighbordood there are about 300 people in a 100 yd radius. Thats alot of people. It'd be easier to just kill us all but then you would have disease, contaminated water etc.
Picture yourself as a soldier on a mission to round up people. just think about it. People have guns, vehicles, radios, computers... BRAINS. Previous roundups of people have never even approached the scale you speak of. Each was preceded by plenty of warning. People were less informed, unarmed for the most part.
Trust me, you would see it coming. I see nothing coming like this. Alot of theory and bogus misleading info but nothing that is credible.
Oh, I almost forgot. Previous governments that did this all failed miderably in the end.
Be vigilant, politically active, participate in your community and love your neighbor. You'll be ok, now get back to living and experiencing life.
Peace
