what do you think the chances of an armed rebellion of freedom-minded and pissed-off citizenry are?
Absolutely, positively zero. Rebellion usually comes from the young and vigorous in a citizenry and remember, we now have two generations who (A) Have not been taught any U.S. history (B)Have been taught that fighting of any kind is bad (C)Have been indoctinated to the idea that a strong central government with a ruling class is what we need, and (D) It is the responsibility of every person to bow to the wishes of the smallest group so that everyone is 'equal'
Well...if that's the case, then there will be no country left on Earth that is free.
Might as well nuke the whole mess. No reason to live.
