When one discusses the real reason for the Second Amendment the right of citizens to defend themselves against a potentially tyrannical government inevitably someone points out the stark difference in firepower between a guerilla uprising in the United States and the United States government itself.

We’re a 90 million strong militia... If we are pushed to it...

Agreed.
There have to be better analogies than the VC.

agree but that isn’t the writer’s comparison. His comparison is to ‘the hillbilly vietcong’ in appalachia, etc. In other words, right wing militas.
