Sniper,

We agree at more then not, the truth is you give me 10 guys and 2 weeks. I can give them basic skills in 3 days (ball breaking but still) and the rest of the time is having them conduct operations and lead them in operations. Get some experience under their belts and release them to train 10 more guys each. Ideally, my 10 guys would train and lead 10 guys to act within a months period.

So give me a month and thats 11 men in the field, give it 2 months and thats 121, after 12 months you're looking at a full potential of nearly everyone in the country. No they won't be professional soldiers but they will be a combat force. The problem is essentually 2 fold, the liberals have tried to pop off their own conflicts. Usually it comes down to a small group or an individual going in and shooting a few cops.

The results are always the same the "shooter" is killed and cops sweep it under the rug. For any type of revolution to happen its going to need be the Patriots who win the engagement. Most of the PATCON inspired sonflicts of the 90s such as Ruby Ridge and Waco was the Patriots on the defensive end. Guerrillas don't defend they attack and whoever pops off the first shots whether its just one man or a full squad, they need to win to inspire others to step up and stand up as well.

The American revolution wasn't believed in until a bunch of militiamen beat the British Army in a single engagement. Then it was decided by others who were on the fence they could stand up and they could win. For the most part no one will believe any resistance can beat the US Military.

The problem is compounded that the military is full of patriots and some will side with us. But we have enemies outside the US who will be waiting to jump in and bring down America. They don't make a distinction between the American idea and the present government.
