Sweet! Mismatch of the millennium...disorganized, poorly trained civilians with small arms versus a well trained army with: tanks, bombs, jet fighters, artillery and drones, tactics and strategy. Makes me think of a western where one of the gunfighters walks into street and draws first and we hear a *POP* which is followed by a cork dangling from a string. The military-industrial complex is a self perpetuating machine, it was too late as soon as we decided to keep a standing army. The MIC and doesn't take kindly to challenges.
Article I, Section VIII
To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years ;
To provide and maintain a Navy;
To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;
To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;
To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United
States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;
Now how long have we been in Afghanistan? In Iraq? How long were we in Vietnam? I kind of think we have been appropriating money for wayyyy longer than 2 years for these monetary quagmires. Also, from the text above, it also appears to me that Congress can suppress insurrections. Wouldn't taking over the government using guns be considered an insurrection? Just sayin...
