In case you did not 'get it', the first thing they have to do is disarm the citizen, or this BS will not work.

Won't work. Some militias, at least in the u.s., exist explicitly to do nothing, completely off radar, and stockpile weapons for arming the public in the event of attempted confiscation.

Yes Cicero had a way with words alright however he was his own worst enemy .. in 63 BC then Roman Consul Marcus Tullius Cicero told the Senate he had uncovered a plot devised by noble Roman Senator Lucius Sergius Catilina to overthrow the Republic.

The Catiline Conspiracy 63 BC.

Where after he used his formidable powers of persuasion to convince the Senate to grant him exemplary powers, and then had Catilina who had once shown Cicero great favor by becoming his house guest, and an unknown number of his supporters arrested and executed without trial, actions that made him many enemies.

Cicero followed up on the Catilina outrage in 52 BC by having thugs led by his "dirty deeds doer" one Titus Annius Milo, ambush and kill Roman Senator Publius Clodius Pulcher who was not letting up on his calls for Cicero to be prosecuted under Roman Law, for having put Catilina and some say hundreds of his supporters to death without being heard.

Cicero appeared to be the prime mover in the March 44 BC assassination of Julius Caesar, who had been another of his house guests and who had twice pardoned him on capital charges, for which Mark Anthony had him proscribed by the Senate and executed December 43 BC.

Many historians make much of Caesar "pardoning" Cicero in the wake of Pompey's defeat at the August 48 BC Battle of Pharsalus .. thus in January 49 BC Caesar had brought his Gallic legions into Italy across the Rubicon a tract of swampy land that defined the country's north east boundary, in defiance of a Roman law that forbids regular troops from exercising on the mainland which precipitated civil war.

The truth is that when many of the survivors of Pompey's Republican Army got back to Italy, they were met by Caesar's garrison troops then court martialed and put to death on the capital charge of bearing arms against Caesar.

Although he had left Italy and joined Pompey in Greece, Cicero who had been entrusted by the Senate to lead negotiations with Caesar did not take the field on the day of battle - earning him undying disdain from Pompey's son Sextus, who said he should have accepted Caesar's terms in the first place thus averting civil war - that Cicero had not technically "borne arms" saved his life.

The other time Cicero got off the hook was in 45 BC after he was called before Caesar to explain his relationship with one King Deiotarus, who had on the testimony of a slave plotted to murder Caesar, if Caesar had rejected Cicero's defense he and the King would have been put to the sword. Cicero's Speech on Behalf of Deiotarus, King of Galatia pdf.

Cicero is known to have been in the thrall of one Atticus a wealthy publisher and industrialist who was despite his Greek name a Jew, the Catiline Party had in fact proposed to bring in reforms that would have freed most of the slaves in Rome, and would have enfranchised thousands of stateless persons as Roman Citizens, the Jews never wanted that so they invented the plot and turned things over to Cicero. Edit.
