Critter Report post Posted March 5, 2014 What he fails to consider is that our military men and women are pretty dang patriotic themselves (Most gun owners) and for me it is hard to believe you would get most of them to take up arms against their own country while siding with a loser like obama. If a Pres like obummer EVER tried using heavily armed forces against the citizens people would revolt on him so fast he wouldn't last long. This democracy has come way to far to put up with Shi! from some leftist loony president. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThomC Report post Posted March 5, 2014 And with all the .22 ammo stockpiled in garages all over the country we the people could hold off for a long time. I believe that the reason that Japan did not continue on to invade the mainland is because "there is a gun behind every blade of grass". The socialist that want to take over know that they first have to disarm us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattys281 Report post Posted March 5, 2014 I believe the major question here is not if the American people could offer resistance but if they would. I think they would not. You will never gather enough ar15s amongst civilians and organize them in an effective enough manner to fight against helicopters with thermal imaging devices and NATO troops with night vision scopes, etc. Its not a lack of weaponry, but a lack of unity that would prevent it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats the problem to a T! People dont have the stones to do whats needed. By the time they did, it would be to late. But I do agree with the article that even our great military could not beat a radical population in guerilla warfare. What cop or soldier wants to know everytime they go out, they have no idea who or where the enemy is with people all around them to hide amongst? The defection rate would be high I would like to believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The defection rate would be high I would like to believe. Many LEOs and soldiers would straight up not fight their own people and others would join the resistance. For it to go down, it would involve foreign troops on our soil to do it. Bottom line is that you can not change the country without breaking the cycle of dependency and changing the mindset of the masses. Violence would never accomplish it because you would still have leaches who pandered their votes away to whoever promised a free handout and in a short number of years you end up with the same problem. You have to change the people first then they will change the gov. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ringer Report post Posted March 17, 2014 I have all the goodies for a good fight but I will be using only one gun and that is a sniper rifle. My uncle spent almost a year in the Pacific all alone on an Island full of Japs and he did OK with one. It pays to be a sneaky old bowhunter. :-{) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Me and a lot of people i work with are on your side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
