Let's just say that the govt decided to do something that sparked a revolution of sorts... do you HONESTLY think that those bearing arms will stand a chance against this military?
This govt doesn't fear its citizens, and it certainly doesn't fear any weapons they have.
Very interesting.

Honestly?
Yes.
As to the govt. fearing guns in the hands of citizens, then why is private gun ownership heavily restricted in other countries, especially dictatorships?
Why was it heavily restricted in Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia and communist Cambodia?
As Mao once said, power comes from the barrel of a gun.
