Sorry dear, vut ifthat was really true, you would already ve lost anyway! You and all good Americans have been financing a national defense system that is many times greater than any other country in e world and, whether youwant toacknowledge it or not, there is NO WAY that private citizens (especially as politically divided as they are today) could EVER arm themselves enough to fight the huge war machine YOU have been promoting all this time!
How will citizens, even armed with semi-automatic weapons, resist the forces of the Amrican Government military might?
Will a semi automatic be a, appropriate defense against drones? Against tanks? Against chemical weapons? Against smallsize nuclear war heads?
If you really believe that the semi automatics and the hand guns you so cherish for your defense are a match to "prevent government over reach" you are deluding yourself.
All those are good for is to kill many innocents, and maybe to help you commitsuicide when you realize how very powerless you are against what you seem to fear the most: the government of the USA
your assumption requires that the military would turn on it's citizen's. do you really think that fighter pilot will fire rockets on an American city ?
