I think it's easlily demonstrable that the idea that someone could really defend himself against the US government with a stockpile of automatic weapons is absurd. No matter what, you are going to lose in a faceoff.


One person can't, but 200 million can.

Do you think the police could ever conduct a house-to-house search of all US homes? The police would be shot dead in every US city for committing treason. That is, unless we were conditioned to believe that guns are unnecessary and evil, and then allow them to be incrementally taken away over time.

Do you think the police could conduct a house-to-house search in England? Now that pointy sticks are outlawed there, yes, I believe that they easily could, and with little protest, much less armed resistance.
