Most middle class in the cities have no guns whatsoever. I’m not sure how they are going to get the weaponry you are talking about.

Depends on who gets what when things fall apart. The Illinois National Guard has equipment for a full brigade of infantry including IFVs and artillery support. Most of the equipment is located between Chicago and the Fox River, (Chicago and Suburbs). Now when Mayor Rham besides that he needs to feed the 9.8 million people in the Chicago Metro Area and moves into Southern Illinois to get the food, how you gonna stop him unless you have army of your own? And before you say the troops won't do it remember the Illinois National Guard troops will be watching their urbanite families starve. So when the choice is watch your kid starve or drop a barrage on some farmhouse the choice gets a bit more gray.

You got anything in your basement that can counter battery 155mm howitzers or an MLRS? Cause Mayor Rham has them, and GOV Quin is going to jump when Rham tells him to mobilize the guard.

Like i said there will be order, but it will be the order of the warlords. Every general will have to throw in with one group or another. And it may come down to lower officers at the company level making the call.

Maybe. Lots and lots of territory to cover. Towns every 5 to 10 miles. Outnumbered 10K to 1 and there won’t be any defined front or target. It’s not like Fallujah where you got towns in the middle of a desert of nothing. They will have serious attrition issues if people start fighting back. It may be like Somalia.

If I did my momma didn't raise a child foolish enough to post it on an open forum.
