On black market newer guns usually cost a fuckton more than their market price because it takes too much effort to actually get them.

Hi chat

Yeah but here's a thing though, militias are a small group.

Civilians are a way bigger group.

And if 60% of people will rise up, they could simply overthrow the goverment.

Also army is not 100% certain to stay within goverment's reach in that case.

Well I mean yeah.

But civilians will never get any ground to air complexes or anything like that.

Stealing from military bases in first world is almost impossible since penalty for it is life in prison or excution and they're guarded to shit.

What I'm getting at is that civilians having more or less modern firearms isn't meant to be practical, it's meant to be a constant reminder to the state not to fuck with people to much or there will be blood.

And state is not usually willing to take the chance.

? ? ?

Are there dictators in US

I wouldn't say it's the main reason, I'd say main reason is to fight against overwhelming opression in case if such arrives.

The point of the Second Amendment is to refill the Freedom Meter™️ if our gov’t gets overthrown, it’s a failsafe for the current gov’t.

I think they were going off "If brits come back people should have guns to kill them" when they wrote that.

Without weapons a populus is unable to fight against their government.

At this point of time even with it's not.

At least not in countries with solid armed forces.

Well military has access to fun things like WOMD's and chemical warfare.

True, but you don't need to kill them all around America

You need to push them out of cities and secure roads

Psst

Sure there will be levels of insurgency in the forrests but who cares.

Psssssst

Mr e

Out of cities?

Bomb them

Hmmmm

Ever heard about second siege of Grozny?

Mr eeeee

Oof Grozny

The US military has proven itself so far to be quite incompetent at suppressing guerrilla campaigns, example A being Vietnam. And with areas that are rather similar in climate to Vietnam being inside the country, like the Deep South, the US army would have a hell of a time trying to fight there.

@Ｋ▲ＩＳＥＲ Vietnam had a good army though

You gotta take in account that Vietnamese found a bunch of wars beforehand

And they already had a lot of systems like tunnels ready before US arrival.

And ultimately vietnamese still lost in numbers.

I would say it's more about pushing guerilla troops out of main points and securing them

They can take everything else, it doesn't matter, what are they going to do with forrests or mountain areas.
