Do you really think you have anything in your arsenal that's a match for what the Army/Air Force/Marines/Navy have at their disposal? And communications and backup aren't an ocean away anymore. Hell, the Long Beach PD probably has you out-gunned.

Like who? And what exactly constitutes a "gun nut"? Number of guns owned? Caliber? Rounds per minute? What exactly?

You know who they are; they incessantly post about their personal armory.

Do you bother to celebrate Independence Day? It sounds like from your absolutist perspective that this would be an inappropriate day for you to enjoy. So why not just report to work that day. Better still, why not relinquish your U.S. citizenship since it was ill-obtained and the result of "insurgent" rebellious activity against the legitimate government (Britain). I'm sure the U.K. will take you back.

Did you actually think that through before you posted it? There was nothing anti-American about my post, just clear, simple logic.
Seriously: any armed uprising would have to consist of a
lot of people, well armed and under control - ie 'well regulated militia' - good luck with that. Anything less would be considered nothing more than someone 'going postal'. In a day and age where they send SWAT teams to serve bench warrants for skipping jury duty, they odds are not in your favor.
The question I put to you is: do you think a Second American Revolution be possible today, and if so, how would it be played out? The only way I see it happening is if 2 or more branches of the armed services 'turned'.
