Answer 2

If the US were invaded (militarily), the resulting chaos and panic would make it highly unlikely the US government would arm the civilian population. Any armed resistance would come from those who are already armed or can get arms on their own.

Any effective defense would need to be coordinated. With a large number of armed individuals, it would is hard to imagine how these individuals would be able to mount a coordinated defense of the US. There would be no effective command structure to organize armed individuals across the country. There would be no effective way to control their actions. And there probably would be no way to effectively communicate with them. And, given all of the confusion, with armed civilians running around, how would you be able to distinguish friend from foe?

This is not to say that the military is the only effective defense for the nation. But you have to admit, they have more pieces of the puzzle at the start, so they may have a better chance at doing the job.

Consider the lessons learned in early American history in the war for independence, and the early Indian wars. It may well be that the US revolutionary war and civil war were the first well-documented instances of successful guerrilla warfare. If this is true, then it is rather ironic that we are not as effective at fighting this way today.

But if the government were to arm civilians, it would seem reasonable to want to arm those who can use the weapons most effectively whatever the background of the "volunteer."

Hope this helps. Best wishes.

Think about this. Let's take a State like Florida for example. A military invasion comes in and intends to take over Florida. Think about the manpower and resources necessary to defeat military operations there, let alone the civilian force where a large percentage has everything from a gatling gun to a derringer. Also consider the area necessary for occupation. It would take a half million troops to even begin holding occupation in Florida alone. Finally you have to think about the word "invasion." How the heck are they going to invade us with sufficient force to stomp out our military? Impossible and will never, ever, happen. Do you seriously think that if someone attacked the United States they would stand any chance of conquering us? The only way to do it is through biological warfare which would probably kill the SOB's initiating the attack, if not eliminating mankind. Nukes seem to be the common subject for defeating our country, however, lets say the radical Islamic Muslim vermin bring in 5 nukes and detonate them. Again, think of the size of this country. Yes, we would lose a lot of people and perhaps a few thousands of habitable miles and it would be devastating, but we would still be the United States of America with enormous resources and military might. It is why I chuckle when I hear that the Muslim radical idiots will defeat us. No, not chuckle, laugh. Ain't know way it is going to happen.

Answer 4

Well, if America was invaded i Doubt that someone from the U.S Government is going to show up at anyones house and just give them a weapon i would assume they would most likely be hiding somewhere else in the world with there Oil money stock piles from the recent bs".. but that aside i doubt your felony conviction would matter any either i suppose if an invasion was to take place everyone would be drafted (unless you run to canada<--which is my suggestion) but in truth theres no Real answer for this question your speaking hypothetically and im not sure what a single gun would do if they havent drafted you by that time.. i suppose your going to die anyways.. So yes follow the U.S Government and Fear for an invasion and Fear for your lives Because any dark-skinned foreign person is probably going to blow you up.. with some self sacrificial attempt at Trying to make the world a better place.. yeah yeah..

Answer 5

Hasn't America already been invaded? Everyday there is an article in the paper about someone getting mugged and robbed by someone from a minority group. So my answer is if you feel you need a firearm for protection go out and buy one, unless you have a criminal background, then you're probably one of the people I read about in the paper.

Answer 6

I am actually working two part time jobs totalling 46 hours a week while taking 14 units. Going to school full-time is hard enough, so I congrat you for bettering yourself.

But, if we are invaded, unless you are in the military, get your own gun.

Answer 7

hes not a criminal ..the proper term would be "EX CON"

What news channel are you watching?
America invaded?

By who?
Who has a big enough army, and better technology to avoid detection bringing such an army to the State?

sounds to me like your drugs might have you paranoid..either that or youre watcing FOXNOIS channel, and starting to believe guliani and the other repubs who say WWIII is upon us.

Sounds like you just want to use a gun too much.

Rehab your life, get a job, and stop listening the the noise the guliani fox netwrok spews out

Answer 8

At that point I think there will be conses ions allowing citizens to protect themselves.

If not I will get you one.

In the absence of local government Martial law takes effect. That means the military dictates the rules and it is usually more restrictive. If we are in a situation that requires more people to carry guns; of course they will give you one. It would have to be really bad.

I don't see this happening.

Answer 9

No country has the balls to even try to invade the homeland!!! Americans dont run from a fight we run to the fight. There are over 80 million Americans who own guns, name a country that wants to take on 80 million patriots on there own land.

Answer 10

You obviously aren't from California. We're already being invaded by Mexico. No one is handing out guns here.
