Give me a break. Your premise doesn't hold water. You even admit it in the next sentence.

And they did not kick the US military's ass. They kicked the ass of a handfull of special forces guys. They had a huge advantage of numbers and were up against troops that did not have the required support. Sure, they won that battle. If we'd been stupid enough to continue the fight, one B-52 would have all but destroyed them.

And might I add we've already seen a prime example of an uprising against the US government that went horribly wrong. It was called the civil war and the south got their asses handed to them.

And that was back when both sides were pretty much equal as far as armament. Hell the uprisers even had armored ships and submarines.

Now you expect to reverse that outcome even though the average person going up against the government won't have anything better than a rifle while the military has machine guns, tanks, and bombers?

That simply doesn't make sense, and nonsensical, quasi-paranoid arguments are not going to bring the general public around to your point of view.
