Historically that has been true. However, it has never been tested with a population that has 100 million firearms in its possession.
Which is why I expect the Obamanoids to make the nation's first serious play for universal disarmament.
When that happens, let the games begin. By then the money won't be any good, so what will you have to lose but the chance to kneel in submission before a chickensh*t third world socialist a-hole?
Freedom's just another word for "nothing left to lose" ;^)
Just need to use those 100 million before it gets too late (i.e they all get taken away and turned into energy saving vacuum tubes)
