US citizens have always had equal or better weapons than our infantry.

I don't know this guy, and I hate the title, but he's on point with his facts:

In any case, there has been precious few incidents where the local or federal forces went balls out on us. Yeah, I can name a few, I get it, grew up in Tulsa, I get it, but they're not busting down our doors and putting us on trains because we are armed.

There's a Navy base in my backyard, they train helicopter pilots. Think those men and women will STFU, follow orders and drop on their neighbors? I'd like to think better of them.

If I'm wrong? I am armed as well as they are.
