After watching two bank robbers hand LAPD their lunch in the N. Hollywood shootout, I not only wouldn't want to rely on the police for any kind of help, I also wouldn't worry about their outgunning me if it came to gun confiscation raids. I doubt the military would be able to muster enough men willing to fire on American citizens. Short of a declaration of martial law, they'd be committing several crimes by even thinking about assisting police in such an action. Lots of military folks are regular, law-abiding gun folks. And if you were assigned such a task, would you find such a government still worth defending?
