I think it's worth mentioning that the total number of military personnel is between 2 and 3 million. Gun owners in thw US are about 1/3 of all adults. In other words, there's between 35 and 55 gun owners for every soldier. Add to that that many of those very same gun owners are soldiers themselves.

And citizens may not have everything the government does, but we do have two things that could do far more damage than nukes - computer hackers and electromagnetic pulses.

Correct- that is why China once said that you could NEVER invade The USA because there would be “a gun under every blade of grass”

"...we do have two things..."


Unsure if anyone in my neighborhood has an electromagnetic pulse weapon or not.

That was Admiral Yamamoto.

The Yamamoto quote in this letter is said to be, “to invade the United States would prove most difficult because behind every blade of grass is an American with a rifle.” ...

1. You can’t buy it back. You didn’t sell it to me in the first place. In the second place, it isn’t for sale.

2. You, congressman, have threatened me with violence. I will respond appropriately.

3. F off

That any Congressman would even think of nuking citizens of this country is sick. It shows what a power trip they’re on. If such an unspeakable event was carried out by the government, it wouldn’t end the insurrection, it would inflame it.

All this is is socialists applying the Hegelian Dialectic of incrementalism to inch towards their long term goals through a series of short term “smaller” goals.

We really need to purge out the socialists from this country.

If they start rounding them up you might as well turn them in bullets-first, because once they have your guns the next step will be the death camps.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” ― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918-1956

Typical Left Wing claptrap. You can’t buy back what never belonged to the government in the first place.
