History's most effective guerillas come from some of the poorest societies on earth. Most of them are so fanatically devoted to their cause that they abandon regard for human life, not only their enemies but that of their comrades and innocents. You just don't find that in the west, even in elite military units. It's that third world hardness that even the toughest, non-criminally insane Americans will never have.

If you are talking about the government going crazy on us they probably would have a problem. You have to realize the amount of men in this country who are still true blooded Americans, even though the liberals hate us we would stand up. Many people have military a policee training so right there you have guys with tactics. Plus the amount of firepower us as civilians own is awesome. The other thing is a majority of people in the military and police would not go for it. Also logistics the government would have a hard time keeping up supplying their guys since I am sure small unit raids would happen.
This is just my thoughts. |

I've not thought too hard on the matter, but I'd be willing to bet a "crackdown" wouldn't go as planned for a multitude of reasons.
First, don't assume the civilian LEO's and the US military and/or National Guard units would go along in step with such orders. I have faith that a good portion of all branches would not only hesitate to carry out such BS orders, they would refuse and actually step in and fulfill their oath. Secondly, as it has already mentioned I too believe there are enough former military and LEO's with enough knowledge and savvy to put up one hell of a fight using small unit tactics, etc, to keep the government off balance. I'll stop there. |

I know when I served in the Marines in the late 80s and early 90s the consensus among the folks I served with was that we would not turn our guns on our own countrymen. I realize that was a long time ago, but I bet the feelings have not changed that much.

None of it is likely all that great but it is better then someone with no training at all. They likely have pretty advanced training in emergency driving. They have experience in dangerous situations and have seen blood and death up close. More importantly they have an intimate knowledge of their local area and it's population. They know who is who in the area, like who the local fed LEO's are for example. They also know the criminal element like who to buy contraband materials from.

Unlike other guerrilla wars, this one would put general military up against the smartest people in the world. In Vietnam Iraq and Afghanistan we fought uneducated mobs of indoctrinated poor country folk. Here they would be up against the doctors, chemists, farmers, and engineers who wrote the text books they learned from.

Riots would be short-lived. People go without food, water, electricity for a few days and they'll get compliant really quickly. Offer three hots and a cot in a "protected area" (like a former WalMart...
 ) and those who survived the urban carnage would gladly toe the line. Look at Katrina. Those who were trapped for a few days happily marched into the Superdome for a chance to have food, water and shelter.
The cops gladly confiscated weapons and forced self-reliant people out of their homes. (Take note, preppers.) Ditto for the .mil. Now, I realize Katrina wasn't exactly FO time but it was a nice little dress rehersal. And, as for LEO and .mil "loyalty", I would imagine a few would join some kind of resistance but if their families were offered food and shelter on a secured base, you think they wouldn't do .gov's bidding? Jungle rules make us act like animals. TC |

All anyone has to do to bring civilization in the United States to a grinding halt is to shut down the Interstate highway system. To do that you don't have to control/destroy the whole stupid thing. You just have to destroy/control key points, bridges, etc.
Take, I don't know, the Jersey Turnpike, for example. How hard would it be to shut down the Jersey Turnpike, especially if you had access to a few armored vehicles? Hell, even without armor it would be easier to shut it down that it is to keep it open. A bad traffic accident can shut most Interstate highways down. Hell, an empty box in the middle of the road can almost shut most of them down. Trucks stop rolling, people starve. Period. Now, who does it and why they do is far outside the scope of this post (  ), which is intended for conversational purposes only.

In order to pull off a far ambush you need to be able to recognize and target your enemy from a distance. If you are an urban guerrilla and your enemy can determine that from a distance you are doing something very wrong. Guerrillas hide amongst the populace and aim to be indistinguishable from them.

If you are an urban guerrilla and your enemy can determine that from a distance you are doing something very wrong. Guerrillas hide amongst the populace and aim to be indistinguishable from them. Difficult to do a far ambush when you can't tell who is who. Guerrillas don't hide that well when money is thrown at the locals to dime them out. In fact, it makes it pretty easy. LOL it's fallacy in this day and age with modern intelligence gathering to think that people can't tell who is who. |

How effective would you expect the American people to be in conducting Guerrilla Warfare If you're truly interested, look into the level of support from foreign nations which most successful insurgencies receive (and even unsuccessful ones, for that matter). From where would Americans get such support? Russia and China would support the right wing insurgency in the US and by attacking the US DoD abroad. The more internal conflict they can get us in, the better off they will be. Still wanna riot? Aaaaand they've had their fingers in domestic issues recently, too. |
