If you think the everyday citizen armed with a citizen level weapon (handgun, shotgun, semi-auto rifle) thinks they are a competition for the strongest military in the world then I got a bridge in the Sahara to sell you hypothetically, it really wouldnt take much to fuck up the government especially when a real fight wouldnt go down like they did in the 1700's. timothy mcveigh showed what crazy is capable of (ironically due to the government overplaying their hand), christopher dorner had the lapd spooked into shooting at innocent people. even the latest trump lover who mailed all those pipebombs had the media panicking. people run everything still and people need places to sleep, familys to have ect. which are all still susceptible to bullets and intimidation. its hard to fight a drone at 2000feet, its not hard to take down the person who controls it or the individuals who have to cover the tanks from the rear. its also not hard to turn the public against the military who are conveniently intermixed with each other making it all even more of a clusterfuck. IF it ever got to that point it would be an absolute shit show. the core question is if it would ever get to that point. we have a lot of checks and balances in this country to make sure it hopefully never gets to that, but it has happened to other countries in the past and humanity is a very flawed creature who is very much capable of falling down that shit hole. having the citizens own their own firepower is just one more check to the system from having that happen. <cite>Dark_Spiret posted [p:913866385] in We need th...
