Comment Funny how gun rights brings out the revolutionary (Score 1) 2221

in people who really have no idea what they're talking about or how to run a guerilla war. A lot of people keep pointing to Iraq as an example for some strange reason, when in fact, all the resistance did is get a lot of people killed for nothing. What they accomplished so far, is exactly what they could have accomplished by negotiating with the new government. IEDs and suicide bombers do not overturn a government. Your average Michigan milita-type would find out the same thing that the Sunnis found out. That they didn't know what the hell they were doing, and that they somehow thought having lots of rounds in their basement and a big set of cojones was all they needed. We all remember the U.S. Civil War, and that was with a far weaker, politically divided Union not against one of the most advanced, well-trained armies in the world. And no, half would not defect. They would do what they've always done, follow orders rather than allow it all to collapse into anarchy.
