Just wait a short while. USA was not tried yet by any internal strife since 60s, and even then that was mild.

How about Waco? Or the Bundy Stand off (2014 armed civilians illegally using federal lands for commercial purposes took up arms and the Federal government backed down)? Although not armed movements, how about they Occupy Movements?

There was also the 1985 bombing of a neighborhood by Philadelphia police. Their target was MOVE protestors. Six adults and five kids died.

The Occupy protesters, although peaceful, were treated with police brutality and tear gas.
