My counter strategy would be to escape, stay free, get the word out, join your previously arranged "bubba group", and organize a restistance against future confiscations.

ESCAPE? Not likely.

Actually, I was being a little bit over optimistic. If you are the subject of a committed unannounced "raid" and you're unaware that you've been specifically targeted for such action, it'll be over before you can become fully awake from your sweet dreams. Because they will execute a "no-knock" warrant at about 0300HRS and will kill the dog or dogs within milliseconds of making the breach into your home with sound suppressors, called "Hush Puppies" for a reason.

The best you can hope for is to make the proposition very expensive for the intrusion team in terms of lives. That way, they may be a little reluctant to try it the next time on somebody else. The consequences for you are disastrous and final. So make your peace with God before you set out on such a course. It's kinda sorta like the mission of the American forces poised on the DMZ between North and South Korea. They're there solely as a means to rouse the alarm. Their primary purpose? Yell BANG & DIE. The secondary purpose (little known but valid still) is not so much to keep the North from moving South as to keep the South from moving North.

Referring to the raid scenario proposed above: If you gather intelligence from a variety of sources that you might be in line for a raid, you can grab your B.O.B (Bug Out Bag) and light out for your planned secondary or fall back position and hope they don't have it staked out as well. Or send the women and kids to her mom's while you start watching re-runs of The Alamo. Those are pretty much the choices. Of course this pretty much also presupposes that you are the first victim of such a raid. If you are, be sure they'll be looking to make an example of you in order to make the transition to tyranny smoother for the sheep. Start watching The Alamo again....

Seems that one would be wise to increase the enemy's breach time by spending extra money to make the primary entrance more breach resistant. I wonder what other counter measures could be taken so that the costs to the intrusion team would be maximized.

Agree with the rest of your post...
