Yes and No.
Out here in rural Bumf*ck Texas and within most suburban areas, patriots are prepped, armed and loaded to some degree, and ready to respond should we become like Venezuela. If our government fails to honor it's Constitutional contract with the people, we will stand and defend our rights. That includes the right to form a new government by and for the people.
Yes, our nation could be headed that way. But if we can drain the swamp NOW and stop the corruption within our different levels of government, our nation will prevail for another generation of patriots to enjoy the freedoms our founding fathers gave us.
No, patriots will never give up their guns, knives, baseball bats, or whatever else they can use to defend their rights and secure their freedoms against a tyrannical government at any level (local, state, or federal).
BTW Check out the Venezuelan form of government and its Constitutional history.
except if they cut off your communication and come at everyone one at a time, they will face little resistance.
