And, to you tough-talking Neo-Cons with your AR-15 rifles and a few thousand rounds of ammo, here is the reality: they will take your guns, and no, all your Second Amendment bluster aside, you are not going to do anything about it. You are not going to take on a platoon of Marines with state-of-the-art automatic weapons...

Then why are we still fighting in Afghanistan. Seems to me we should have walked over those guys.

They probably wouldn’t have the same restrictive rules of engagement.

We could have, if not for the orders from the top to play nice with the Taliban instead of utterly crush them.

Precisely. The article presumes that you will be waiting inside your house. That would be foolish. When confiscation starts, the place to respond is as far away from your premises as possible. Public roads can be a dangerous place.

More likely it will be nine platoons of para-military Obamabots for a slice of the city and they will be taken on with 16 columns of militia.

As for the Marines, once some start going over to the other side...many will.
