I never understood this American line of thinking. Guns work against other people with guns like those trigger-happy & blood thirst MAGAts. But the US military can cook you alive from a mile away if they wanted to. Against that opponent you’re gonna need a way different approach.

The same US military that is batting a fat zero in winning wars of insurgency? Remember all those videos of afghan people getting killed in thermal vision from “a mile away”? Those guys won.

Yeah, on foreign soil and across the world. Lol I want to see what they can do at home especially now that their ethics are out the window.

It’s worse than what was faced overseas, here at home you have large number of War on Terror veterans. Trained, armed and experienced, many disillusioned with the tilting of the government, and the media, and the populace around them. There’s been a blue shift in both active duty and veteran communities.
The optimist in me hopes it’s enough.
