" The problem is, the left has spent years propagandizing and preparing for it and is likely to win

I'm not so sure Robert.

The left has managed to worm their way into good positions, due to the ignorance of the American voters. But they typically are only real good at running their mouths. But if they cannot get others to do the dirty work, so what. The left does not have the stones to carry out their nefarious plans.

A few years ago they bought 2,400 light tanks and armored personnel carriers and stationed them at strategic spots through the lower 48 states. In the event of rebellion it's not going to be a matter of one man against another with a musket as it was years ago. It's going to be pockets of resistance converged upon and systematically wiped out by high tech equipment. Meanwhile the media will describe it as a triumph of the rule of law and democracy.

Ah, they knew how to deal with unruly populations in those days, but they have the same problem as today, too many people have guns. Shouldn't be a problem now with a large, professional military

Try using your amateur hunting pop gun against two militry Armoured Personel Carriers carrying machine guns with inexhaustable supplies of ammunition and filled with paramilitary personell wearing body armor. You'll learn something.

too many people have guns.

It's a good thing you aren't a 1st class citizen of the United States and you are a 2nd class human on planet earth... living elsewhere. If you were one of my American peers (making you 1st class by default by where you live), and you tired to take my guns, I'd kill you for it.

Keep yourself and your snowflake opinions in your own 2nd or 3rd world shithole. Why would a non American inflict his/her opinion over American issues? Are you that liberal snowflake self important?

GFY

" they bought 2,400 light tanks and armored personnel carriers "

Yeah, maybe. But, sooner or later, they have to stop to perform maintenance; refuel; rearm; to eat; to sleep; and to take a dump and to pee. Those are vulnerable times !

The Russians learned those weaknesses in Afghanistan, and the German's learned them in Eastern & Western Europe. They were expensive lessons

You have to think outside the box.

Good information about that here:

What good can a handgun do against an Army?

" What good can a handgun do against an Army? "

Thanks for posting ! That is outstanding. I have seen it before, but enjoyed seeing it again.

I went to school with a couple guys, their mother was in the French underground. She talked about the Liberty pistols. She said if they did not have liberty pistol, they would use knives, piano wire, tools, what ever they could scrounge.

I would like to acquire a Liberty pistol, as a historical piece.

The essay you posted are great words of wisdom. Everyone here should read this, and heed the advice, and the historical lessons !!

You've got to be willing to fight back.

Hey arsehole, I am a citizen of the world. A place made unsafe by the american obsession with guns and violence to solve problems. I therefore have a dog in the hunt. You need to be aware that there are alternatives to the american life style, some of us do live in a better place, in a more open society

You've got to be willing to fight back.

I seem to remember that there were Jews who fought, thinking of Warsaw, this kind of rhetoric is absolute bullshit, all an armed insurrection would have gotten them was a quicker death. The Jews in Germany were in the wrong place at the wrong time, what happened to them was appalling, but not a reason for gun violence propaganda

" I seem to remember that there were Jews who fought, thinking of Warsaw, this kind of rhetoric is absolute bullshit, all an armed insurrection would have gotten them was a quicker death. "

The Jews did fight at Warsaw, killed a good number of Nazi's, and held up almost a division of German Waffen SS. Doing so, they enabled many JEWS to escape, and by so doing they escaped the gas chambers, and the ovens. The Jews that fought & died there at least enabled some to get away & live, and they died honorably, defending themselves & their families, instead of dieing like sheep.

The Germans suffered over a thousand casualties in the first week of fighting alone. The Germans had to spend more time subduing the Warsaw Ghetto than they did conquering the entire nations of Poland or France.

So you obviously would rather die in a ditch on your knees or in the gas chambers, than to die on your feet fighting to defend yourself & your family.

I hope you do not have a family, as it is obvious you would not defend them !!!

You should be deeply ashamed !!!

YOU ARE A SPINELESS IDIOT, COWARD !!

You cannot compare an insurrection with two nations who just weren't prepared for the Nazi onslaught, the military of both those nations was outdated, even the mighty British could not stem the tide, same reason

" Ok, some Jews went down fighting, their effort is to be applauded, but who is to say the Nazi attitude didn't harden as a result.

Well, the Nazi's were already doing mass executions, firing squads, gas chambers, burning in ovens. I don't think the Nazi's could have been more hardened !

What you think if the Jews would have jumped into the ovens, that the Nazi's would have liked them, and fed them T-Bone steak diners, and candy ?

Well dumb ass ?

"in fact I am neither spineless or an idiot, " Oh contraire, your comments prove that you are !!!
