One thing I was thinking is that drones could be a big threat to anyone opposing the government if it did come to a civil war. It might be worth trying to figure out some countermeasures and have them ready just in case.
The Iranians have successfully brought at least one drone down via GPS spoofing, so that is one thing to look at. GPS signals are very weak, so even quite a low powered transmitter might be able to disrupt drone operations over quite a wide area.
Also, drones operate via a satellite link, so maybe there’s some way of jamming that, or of taking the satellites offline. In a civil war, bringing down the government communication network would certainly tip the odds a long way in your favour anyway.
Hopefully it never comes to that, but there seems to be a mass drift towards totalitarianism underway throughout the western world at the moment, and IMHO it’s a good idea to keep hoping for the best but start preparing for the worst just in case!
We who believe in the citizen's absolute right to be armed and equal haven't done anything concrete to illuminate and clarify our position and most of us have spent most of our time scrambling to buy those things that we know will be unavailble in a matter of days. We should be networking to discuss our options, solidifying our trusted relationships and mobilizing - to Washington DC - to show the "representatives" how many of us there are. Just waiting for the next crooked election cycle is not going to help us. I have called the NRA and GOA to try to get a rally started and maybe if some of the rest of you get on them too, maybe something will get done. Just waiting to see what happens never works out well.
