This is what cracks me up about the “your rifle won’t fight a tank!” jackasses.
It’s like, have tanks ever worked against a domestic insurgency? Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, I can’t think of any time the U.S. military just wiped the floor and left.

And in those circumstances, the loss of life was even less of a hit. For every American you ordered shot, that’s one less customer or soldier you have, if the soldier you ordered to do the killing doesn’t just turn on you or refuse. Your position becomes weaker, even if you gain ground anywhere.
