Dunno . . The situation hasn't arisen yet, and one probably doesn't have a clue about what would happen if the Sh*t hits the fan.
Notably, it wouldn't be pretty, and one probably ought to have some provisions laid away. My bet on how somebody like the current Administration would handle an "Uprising" would be to cut off all utilities, and create a need for the helpless and dumb to become instantly dependent upon the Government for food, water and warmth. (More than they are now)
That would leave the "Insurgents" on the outside looking in, so to speak. They would have to take whatever they needed to survive and if the places to "Take it" were centralized, then the insurgents would be lured in and become targets . .
On the other hand, as I've said, there's more armed Americans (Rednecks, so to speak) than there are Soldiers and Police . . Looking back to Fallujah, Iraq, it took 30,000 American Soldiers to clean out roughly 8,000 "Insurgents" and the cost in blood was pretty high . . Turn those numbers around and you have a bad deal for the Government . .
Old geezers like us might make a difference "once" . . So you'd have to weigh the situation and figure out if what you're doing is going "To make a difference" . . .
Political Statements are a lot like Principles, they can get very expensive or lost in the crowd . .
Always make sure your's won't be wasted.
And I gotta ask . . Where's Ken . . I miss his input and information.
