These people are only effective when they are allowed to operate without forceful blowback. When John Q Public starts letting loose with AR’s and Shotguns they run like rats.
Don’t count on trained soldiers running under fire. The armed revolutionary members are well trained, well disciplined, and have combat veterans in their ranks. They will return fire and have demonstrated to be organized into functional small team units. If John Q public opens up individually with an AR they will be shot down by suppressive fire from trained Communist revolutionaries. One or two John Qs in plate carriers and Hawaiian shirts will be cut down by a platoon of revolutionaries they already opened up with organized fire support in Seattle 300+ rounds in a few seconds it was black on black so the media ignored it. My specialty is small team’s SRT specifically we as in the US military trains our own and also our “allies” in small unit tactics they then go off and train every other group including “freedom fighters”
Take them from the rear. They can’t barricade every street.
