It's funny how many people think that we could never win a revolutionary war against a powerful military...I mean that has never happened before or anything. Somehow some of these same people, without even a passing nod at the obvious cognitive dissonance, tells us how we could have never won in Vietnam and we can't win now in Afghanistan.

How come these grubby uneducated peasants can beat our military with all of their super duper weapons (they didn't build those btw), but one of the most armed and best trained populaces in the world couldn't do the same? Are we supposed to believe that?

This isn't Nazi Germany. This isn't communist Russia or communist China. Americans were born of rebellion, we are armed to the teeth, and we aren't stupid enough to fall for the false dichotomy of "suicide by cop" or "peacefully turn them in".

There’s the option of giving them the cheap ones, hiding the good ones, and knowing that “it’s on”. Then organize and engage on our terms instead of theirs.
