YES, I DO BELIEVE that a LOT of us “hillbillies” (wherever located) WILL resist & IF REQUIRED with massive “force of arms”.
A modern civil war (UNLIKE “The Late Unpleasantness” of 1861-65) will be EXTREMELY UGLY, with NO gaudy/gold-trimmed GRAY or BLUE uniforms, NO great war horses, NO flashing sabers & with damned little “glory” to be had by anyone.
I pray to God that what I fear after 03NOV20 will NOT come to pass BUT if I have to I still know how, even at my age, to lead a regiment-sized guerrilla force & will cause a great deal of HAVOC to disrupt/delay/destroy the opposing forces of the FAR LEFT. - Fyi, a person who is trained, as I once was, to fight guerrillas can also FIGHT/LEAD a force of GUERRILLAS.
(Official DA policy says that it takes 100-200 frontline troops to defeat ONE talented guerrilla, who is adequately supplied & “fighting on his home ground”.- In my experience, each guerrilla can “tie down” 300+ regular troops.)
Should a shooting civil war breakout, I will be FAR from the only guerrilla chief to field a fighting force of 10-300 fighters/support folks.
(Give any trained guerrilla leader one to 100+ two-five member teams & such a group will tie-up a Brigade or even a Division of regular “main force” troops.)
