We have more guns than ten years ago... they don't care that we have guns.

They also have bigger guns, bombs, tanks, mace, sound cannons, weaponized 5G, control over the power, water, sewage, food, etc.

Politicians don't fear nukes.

They don't fear the .50 or the rpg. The days of some sniper with a rifle are over.

They fear the small guns hidden in a pocket. The cheap, one shot, plastic guns downloaded to pass through metal detectors. I'm pessimistically optimistic that technology is advancing faster than they can stop it.

At the end of the day, these people balance their ego against their fear. They want to be outside around cheering sheep listening to them speak. You don't have to take on a tank with your m4. Even if you did, there's a hundred more tanks waiting to replace it. It's the people giving orders to the tanks that are a possible problem.

I don't have any answers, but I also don't think we have anything to worry about for many years. Go online and look at the people in office today. They aren't smart enough to understand what they're doing half the time. Until I see groups of politicians getting charged with treason I'm not going to panic. Despite all the conspiracy theories I don't think the government is as united as they pretend to be. I don't think the majority of politicians will surrender quietly if their coworkers started threatening them with the death penalty. Which is a good thing. It means there's a chance for hope if something does go horribly wrong.

I think the current limitations of food transportation is a big problem. Who knows... Maybe Elon with self driving trucks will work out for the better? It's not impossible.

They'll need plastic ammo with plastic shell casings. Plastic primers?. IDK.

Only a matter of time. A lot of people are thinking about it. Could happen in the future.

I'm not so sure. I feel like they would very much prefer we didn't have them, however they also appear to believe they can still get what they want despite the current state of public armament. I'd like to disagree, but look at all the people who have given away their 1st amendment rights this year.

They care.

If they didn't, then they wouldn't bother banning them, and they wouldn't have stopped production of ammo, etc.

Their street stooges certainly care. Numerous entertaining Antifa encounters to demonstrate this fact.
