They could sieze control of an American town pretty quickly if they wished and the only thing that would stand in the way would have to be local cops and citizens.
” the only thing that would stand in the way would have to be local cops and citizens”
I have friends in several Texas border communities. The cops down there are armed like a military unit and the citizens are heavily armed. That fight wouldn’t last long - especially when the Texas governor sends in “a” Texas Ranger....red
That ain’t gonna happen.
Armed citizenry, hunters, cops....
Not a realistic scenario.
Be a lot of bullets flying around.
