And if they lose one member of their force, lets say, on every fifth garden, how long do you think they’ll keep that up?
They cannot afford a war of attrition.
The police will surround your house, give you 10 minutes to surrender your food, and then use a tank to level your house if you don’t give up.
How long will people resist ?
They will resist like the Jews did. A few will try, they all die and are hung from lamp posts as a warning to others.
