In 2011 13.7 million people, 6% of the U.S. population 16 years old and older, went hunting. Hunters in the U.S. spent an average of 21 days pursuing wild game.
13.7 MILLION armed folks.........plus an estimated 80 million gun owners in the USA today. Consider you're a commie pinko who would just love to overrun our beloved country.......you've launched a nuke to knock out our electrical grid and now you would like to march in and just take over. Now picture going door to door across the land with a 12 gauge or a 30-06 greeting you all over.......forget the deep South for starters, and the upper Midwest hunters next. Kruschev in the cold war and the Emperor of Japan all took this into consideration in WW2 for real.
We are unique in all the world, when somebody wants to come and kick your teeth in you will want to be hugging any NRA shooter you can find............
It happened already inside his head and the video games. A couple Netflix series showed it also.
Man in the High Castle - also. Bezos has taken over. The peashooter brigade and brave men with hunting equipment will save us all.
The funny part is he mentions these peashooters are coming out AFTER the nukes strike us. As if Russia is going to send in ground troops after a couple hundred thermo-nuclear devices fall on us. And as if the normal joes will have a method to even keep warm and fed.
The "militia" will be whittled down to a couple thousand who "prepped" in the right style. That bunch won't stand up to Ruskies with commissars at their backs. The OP needs to read about Russias...or Germans....or Chinese for that matter. None of them duck when commanded to move forward.
I wonder how the Militia would stand up to WWII era mobile rockets...let alone what they deploy today. Little drones can see infrared (Human beings) and that's that. Unless all the "hunters" have some kind of million-dollar suit, they will be found and disposed of quickly.
Here are some WWII vids of ancient rockets. The Germans pooped their pants when these things went off - and the Germans are arguably some of the best warriors in history.....
It is always interesting when people confuse movies/TV with reality
I think they are fantasizing about the movie "Red Dawn" from the height of the Cold War in the 1980's.
This commentary is actually sad. A bunch of people spending what little resources they have to build up an arsenal that will mean nothing in an actual war. But, we all want to feel in charge of our lives and maybe this helps some find meaning.
Then get that bunker built. I refuse to live in fear.
I dont live in fear (or a bunker), I do minimize my contact with it as much as possible and sure don't run around singing its praises.
You can keep picking its cotton if thats what gets you off.

One could say the same about opiates.....and both are killers of many that use them......
San Fran.... says it all. Stay in your loft and let the men fight it for you. This is what American dominance in the last 80 years has lead to folks. People that think, "It can't happen here".
Men with hunting equipment < tanks, fighter jets, helicopters, and drones. The upper hand went to high technology weapons back in the 1950s. We’ve been reliant on “brains” as much as “brawn” ever since.

Actually itt was Admiral Yamamoto who brought up the impossibility of invading the continental US. The famous "rifle behind every blade of grass" quote. Yamamoto knew what kind of a can of whup ass Japan had opened up when they attacked Pearl. His commentary on that was "I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant."
At any rate our armed populace has been considered by every country contemplating invasion. Ever since the Revolutionary war. The British learned the hard way in both the latter war and the war of 1812. Nobody has tried it since then minus a small Japanese incursion in AK in WW2. The Mexican cartels are playing at it with Viet Cong style raids on our Southern border and down there and in the inner cities the Militia needs to form.
The cartels actually need a good spanking from air and sea power and maybe a division of Marines. But since the government won't do what needs doing from where I'm standing the Militia could and should.
