You have hit the nail on the headA lot of the people in these forums are Europeans who are highly ignorant of the disposition of U.S. Military forces. We don't ship yuppies from Yale and Harvard to die overseas you guys. Our infantry is recruited from low income families in rural areas (God and guns! Christian nation!) and the inner city (TUPAC LIVES! FUCK THE POLICE!) and they'll be DAMNED if they let the Feds take their families' guns away. The resulting coup and junta will NOT be kind to progressive policies of any sort. You should be TERRIFIED of a world in which the second amendment has been repealed.
