Lol.nope. Militias aren’t going to stand a a chance against the federal government and if we got invaded the military would be begging people to stop getting in the way of the world’s most efficient killing machine.
There’s more to war than war.
Yes, such as war.
You’re assuming a lot there. All else being equal making a super militia is not going to swing things.
Think of it more like a union. And armed forces arent necessarily the best vehicle for political change for obvious reasons, but rather they are good for protecting human rights from institutions that want to take them away. For instance, a pro choice militia that would protect a clinic, doctor, or patient from a state agency trying to arrest them and prosecute them. Also, it doesn’t need to end up in a shootout, a lot of military and defense is about hypothesis of conflict and the potential cost that comes with it. Sure, a federal or government institution could wipe the floor with the militia, but would it be worth it monetarily and politically?
In the case you highlight? Absolutely. Christian fascists see violence against the oppressed group as a good thing.
I love this argument, because in reality the U.S. government hasn’t won a military victory against an entrenched militia since Grenada. And that was just a tiny island. We couldn’t beat the taliban, who were armed with a bunch of cold war surplus gear.
Even if the U.S. military and police forces wanted to fight a civil war against their own population, they would have to do so knowing that the American public has 100 guns for every soldier and cop.
Tanks, planes, and drones can’t do much without soldiers on the ground to enforce an occupation.
I see you’ve fallen for the propaganda. The Taliban only came back after we left. And only because they had enough support from the people. AQ and ISIS are shattered. Al-Shabab is basically the FARC of East Africa now.
I know you guys think you have some kind of “silent majority” but you really don’t. Given a choice between normalcy and living in an insurgency, most people will choose normalcy in a heart beat. So it won’t be the military vs the people. It will be the militias vs the people and their military. At best you’ll get sizeable chunks of some red state populations. Just imagine how thrilled the other 90% of the country is going to be that you chose violence. Yeah, they’re going to cheer videos of Apache gun cam footage on live TV. And you’ll still be clueless.
