well, given that only the army has access to EMP weapons unless you know how to make a non nuclear EMP weapon. If you do, please share this with me.

The only chace that the rebellion would have would be to be prepared logistically and get to the mountains ASAP. Any city would be simply seiged or cut down, also, try being in the open when an AWACK (sp?) radar plane is pinpointing the raport stike.

Really, if the Congress enacted a bill in which our guns were to be disposed from us and the President creates a Detachment of the U.S. Army to secure these guns, there might as well be a revolution of 80 Million gun owners v.s. 1 Million Armed U.S. Land Forces. And if there's a fool scale revolution between the People and their Government, most likely many Armed Forces will dispose of their duties to fight for their families.

And yes, chances are we can win. A Molotov or two to the exhaust of an Abrams might disable it, and surely you can ZERG RUSH an Abrams and blow up the tank with home made bombs. Yes, chances are we won't have much luck against Low Flying Aircraft unless we steal some ordinance which isn't that hard when the people guarding it is all dead. The only real threat is Bombings from above. There are 3 ways to take down the Airforce. 1. Cut their Supply. Find where they're getting their jet fuel and destroy it. 2. Blow up the planes on land, they have to land eventually. 3. Kill the Pilots/Commanders of the Airfroce.

All in all, it is the Duty of the people to make sure the Government they appointed does not try to fuck them over, and thus an armed Government needs to be Governed by an armed public.

EMP isn't all that hard to generate an overloaded transform generates it. I'm positive we'd think of something.

Youd make a shot into a moving gun platform, Before or after they spray your fighters with mounted machine guns and Air to ground missiles, You cant swarm a tank when 1:You have several support troops, and one tank wont be by itself. I dont care how many people i with I am NOT rushing an M42.

And American will, means nothing if you have artillery and bombs raining down on the homes your trying to protect. If im the president Im putting down a rebellion with any means short of nuclear weapons.

The sights in the M1A1 are mirrors so think about it a molotov would engulf thefront of the tank blinding the gunner that MG42 wouldn't be so scarey blind now would it? a well placed small EMP would take the drone down. it would just be a matter of getting it there
