I just did a quick number check.

There are roughly 2.6 million military personnel in America.
There are roughly 800,000 police.
There are roughly 52 million households with guns.

Even of half refused to take up arms, it’d be no contest.

What we need is an Order of Battle, broken down state by state, of the potential forces of repression that could potentially be unleashed against gun owners.

Locations & concentration of forces, police headquarters from state level down to local level. Offices for disaster & emergency action as well (not just for tornadoes anymore). National Guard units & armories which can be mobilized by the governor’s office to deal with “insurrections”.

Interactive maps would be extremely helpful. It would also help to know the political culture of each state. Alabama ain’t Massachusetts, just saying.

Do members of the forces of law & order really want a significant bloc of the citizenry to regard them as the enemy? Do they care? Just asking.
