Unless they plan on bombing the suburbs, the fight wouldn't be as lopsided as they fantasize.
LMFAO. You think our semi auto AR builds and and 9mm sigs and glocks and absolutely zero organization would have any chance at defending itself from the actual US armed forces? Serious question.
The entirety of our entire armed forces numbers less than 1/2 of 1% of the US population. And that includes the cooks, beauracrats, and lots of other people that don't regularly go around shooting people or being shot at. And don't forgot that all of those armed forces might not even end up fighting on the same side.
So yes, I do think they would have a chance.
In some ways disorganization is a plus in an insurrection as it makes it harder for the organized force to root out their oppposition. All it takes is a collective willpower to take action.
The worst case scenario would be for the organized force to take pre-emptive action against the people. That's why things like gun registries and other "lists" must be prevented at all costs.
