Not a chance in hell, they might downsize but will never change to a bunch of weak defenseless mini targets.

I guess because your savings account is Federally insured and you're getting Social Security? I suspect any minarchist who touches those rails gets burned pretty good.

That's cool. Nobody was talking about that anyway.

Meanwhile, let's add Bruce's name to that list of people who can't understand either warfare or asymmetrical warfare, as unconventional war is now fashionably termed. Lack of study, don't you know.

Guerrillas that have developed beyond just civil commotion have a roughly one in two chance of success, a reading of history will tell you.

So has Special Forces, red Dawn was a movie, you know hollywood, make believe.
Do Ruby Ridge and Waco ring a bell? Do you really think the US Government's hammer, the military, will use restraint when you try to take US territory? Good luck with that.
