I've read this whole thread, and I look at this comment and just shake my head.FOS » 16 Jun 2022, 11:56 am » wrote: ↑ Thats the whole **** question.

address that fact. stop telling us about cannons.
Clearly, there are too many people who don't understand the term "asymmetrical warfare". An armed populace, using asymmetrical warfare tactics, would bring a lot of harm down on even a modern military. We've seen in Ukraine how an armed citizenry has been able to delay, disable, and destroy armor. In Iraq and Afghanistan, insurgencies successfully engaged and did damage to the most advanced military in the world. One poster mocks the idea of engaging an F22 with a rifle... but a shot to that F22 pilot's head from a distance when he isn't actually flying his aircraft is just as effective. Engaging soft targets with hit-and-run tactics, disappearing back into the populace and not staying in one place... hard to hit targets from the air when you don't know where they're coming from beforehand or where they went after.
Send in the military to go house to house... and semi-auto carbines like ARs and AKs will wreak havoc. Which, of course, assumes that the military would even willingly engage in active combat against their own friends and neighbors.
In the end, people tell themselves AR-15s aren't relevant in modern warfare... because that's what they want to believe.
