Whose side has the guns?

Plenty of guns on both sides. Whose side has no problem with breaking things and hurting people to get their demands met?

Unfortunately ... their side.

Our side believes making demands is uncivilized, and we should all learn to compromise - or maybe set up a committee to investigate the possibility of setting the date for a meeting so we can discuss it all.

That’s the salient question right there.

If the military sides with the communists it would be a long and bloody war because there are not enough troops to control the entire country. You would have broad swaths of rebel controlled terrain. They would rule the air and lots of Americans would be murdered by air strikes but then it would get real nasty with retaliation against federal forces and their families, a bloody mess.

If the military sides with free Americans its over real quick. If the military stays neutral it would be over rather quickly after the federal law enforcement was taken out.
