> Furthermore, i find US fascination with their theoretical ability to fight their government with small arms adorable and misguided. I’m not sure how you mean adorable and misguided. 1) If you mean it would be ineffective against a military invasion, I have to disagree. The military has never won a guerrilla war, let alone one on their own turf. Think Afghanistan on steroids with how many guns are in the states. 2) If you mean that being politically active would be far more effective though then I 100% agree. I know some gun owners in the states, and my impression is that for some it quickly turns into standard consumerism. Maybe their first gun was for self defence, but not the 20th. They can obsess over their guns, similar to how people obsess over other gizmos like the latest iPhone etc.
