Real Americans will not fire on [REAL] Americans...

With that addition, we might agree.

The rub, of course, is too many who will be occupied with their survival and that of their family, will be unsure what real Americans look like at 600yds or even closer

I.e., IMO this will not be as simple as our Revolutionary War when it was entirely possible for an effective combat force to live off of the land. It will not be a matter of melting down one's belt buckle to be as well armed as the enemy.

They are not durable fighters...after the first fire fight, we will be able to re-evaluate.We know going in they will be well-supplied and supported and almost certainly their families will be protected and fed. Toss in a few brutal SS-like tactics and it might be easy pickings.

My point is, this will not be the kind of battle with which we are familiar. Recommend Travis McGee's novels on this issue, if you have not already ready them.

Happy Fourth to you and your family.

Yep. I've read all Travis's novels but Castigo Cay and loved each and every one. Prescient and more than a little scary.

Happy 4th to you and yours as well.
