Agreed. But my opinion doesn’t matter much, me not having anything at all to do professionally with combat. However, take a look at what Josip Broz Tito (Yugoslavian partisan leader and later Communist Dictator) said in WW2 (I’m paraphrasing): ‘I’ve been asked how we can fight the Germans with their new tanks, when all we have is old rifles. Well, I’ll tell you – when the Germans in their new tanks get out to take a piss, we’ll shoot them with our old rifles.”

“The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed – where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.”

Amen.

“….what the left of today fails to understand…”

They most certainly do understand it. They are deathly afraid of the threat to power that it implies. It stands in the way of their power over this country and the citizens of this country that they would subjugate under the mantle of socialism. That is why they must destroy it

“Right. If you want defend your freedom against the government you need rpg’s, high explosives, heavy artillery and anti-aircraft missiles. You have about as much chance of defending your freedom against the government with your hunting rifle as you would “armed” with a bb gun or beanie babies. You are defending your right to have toys.”

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Think back to the ugly hot spots of the last 50 years where large military units failed. Vietnam, Afghanistan, current Iraq, etc. A committed group on the ground with adequate rifles will always win in the end unless eliminated. This is the opposite of disarmament of which there are also numerous examples. Germany, Uganda, Burma, etc. The militia is a current idea that will prevail if used and supported. Rifles on the ground (the militia) will be successful if carried by dedicated individuals.

Those tanks and jets that the government have at their disposal all require fuel. Attack the fuel supply and those jets and tanks are just so much scrap metal.
