Also, the fact that a great many of those resisting (myself included) are prior military who know and understand the same military tactics that the NG would use. Most of us (myself included) possess firearms that are current design and production. It’s not like we are just bunch of farmers with old double-barreled shotguns.

The AQ insurgency in iraq was armed with fully automatic weapons, rocket launchers, mortars, grenade launchers, and belt-fed machine guns and were highly trained in military tactics. Furthermore, they were young and suicidally dedicated to their cause.

Nevertheless, they had their heads handed to them by the American military.

Against equipment like armored vehicles, artillery, attack helicopters, close air support, bomber squadrons and predator drones, a domestic insurgency here in the States will be ruthlessly, decisively, and promptly crushed.
