    My point being the us fucking sucks dick and balls at combating against gorilla warfare. And I’m willing to bet the eu would help (at least a small amount, perhaps with training if not by suppling arms) if an organized resistance were to ask nicely.

      EU won’t risk such a thing if the US is unlikely to collapse.

      The only and I do mean only scenario I see an armed resistance succeeding in toppling ghe government is if a decent chunk of the military sides with it and partakes in the insurrection

        The us tends to get tired and pull out of any war it starts particularly gorilla wars; why would this be any different?

          The US, or any country in fact, is unlikely to give up a chunk of its land because some civilians have machine guns.

          I think they’d rather flatten it before considering doing so.

          Lets say California through Texas want to have a rebellion. How long do you think it’s going to last after the army blockades all the freeways and imposes a curfew.

          Believe me I’d sleep a lot easier believing that if the government goes too far we can topple it. But when was the last time you saw something like that happen without the support of the military or the vast vast majority of the population in support.

          And the American people will not rally together due to their strong allegiance to their respective political party
