> Not even the US - which famously has guns all over - would have any kind of chance against their own military

That is correct, if the objective is to glass the entire place. The US military is the mightiest force in the world when it comes to that.

As far as quelling armed rebellions among the citizenry goes, I think just pointing to this months' news should suffice in lieu of an argument?

Thankfully, I'm not from the US. Was there there really an armed rebellion there?

No worries. :)

I'm not understanding how they're linked though.
