You should probably tell the US military, they've spent 20 years and 6 trillion dollars trying to stop some goat herders with 70s era Soviet gear with no success.

And how is that going for the goat herders? The US may not be "winning" in Afghanistan, but they certainly aren't losing as much as the Afghan people are. Their nation has been utterly decimated.

The idea that the American people could make an armed stand in conflict with the US military is about as foolish of a notion as can be dreamt up.
