A few days ago I saw an article that recommended “Bushwick”, a movie with Dave Bautista (“Joe Biden respects gun owners”) and it reveals exactly what liberals think a civil war will be like. Please note this movie was filmed during the rise of Trump.
They think all the “white” Militia states (read conservative southern states) will invade the liberal coastal areas and indiscriminately murder all minorities. But a coalition of racially diverse average people with no combat experience will rise up to beat those Nazis!
The depiction of combat is hilarious. Random house raids with no squad tactics. Single militia soldiers leaving the squad to murder minorities. A mob of “peaceful protestors“ gathers in a group close together in the middle of the street and charges a fortified position with primarily blunt objects and makeshift shields, deflecting bullets from M16s and AK47s. At one point they actually chant “whose streets? Our streets!”
But the Vietnamese got materiel from China, and the Afghanis had plenty leftover from us. If you want to do any serious damage you're going to need support from a foreign power that wants to help take out America.
I think you may be vastly underestimating the amount of material already in country or easily available. Not to mention the already brewing cottage manufacturing industry. There is still a lot of good-ol-boys out there who know how to melt lead, reload ammo, and make open bolt machine guns. There are plenty of hardy women out there who can grow a vegetable garden, do kitchen table surgery, and put accurate rounds downrange.
Those folks don't get a lot of coverage because they keep to themselves. And they come from all walks of life and all ages, not just old guys and boomer ladies.
I know plenty of people who grew up desperately poor and have been extremely resourceful their entire lives. Imagine what they could do when the threat of getting arrested goes away, and it's do or die time.
Also, on top of their people, you got people who may live comfortably now, but love their freedom enough to learn how to fight and survive. Most of us probably fall into that camp. It would be rough for us, but as long as we had something worth fighting for, we would be ok.
Lastly, I can tell you that the military is not going to side against those who wish to be free. There will be internal division, but at least half is going to say "fuck those orders, our duty is to the people"
There's well over 400 million guns in the US and some number like 10 trillion rounds of ammo already in private hands in the US. You also have 12 Million men who spent their late teens and 20's kicking down doors half way around the world. And today many of them have better kit in their basements than they were issued 15 years ago.
Huh, if my math is right, then Americans have roughly enough to arm 1 out of every 8 people on the planet with a gun and 25,000 rounds. This makes me happy.
You're right about the kit part, I've got better nvgs than I was issued back in the middle oughts
Most of the military is right leaning. If the leftists are lucky, not likely, it will look like the Spanish Civil War, with elements of the deep state like the alphabet agencies fighting the conventional military and militias.
The Chinese may fund the propaganda CNN and FOX, and the faggot commies may control the FBI and ATF, but the US military has Posse Comitatus.
