To control an area you need boots on the ground. Drones won't cut it. Sure the government can control an area on paper, but to control it in practice requires the consent of the people in that area.

Personal firearms alone can no longer topple a tyrant. You are trying to play soccer against American football. This isn't Vietnam, nor the '70s. Air superiority doesn't require million-dollar jets.

But at the end of the day the government still needs to CONTROL an area. You can't govern from the seat of a F-35. You need boots on the ground. You need police willing to suppress the people. And if the people have guns that becomes a VERY difficult task.

They don't need F-35s. They only need drones. Have you taken a look at Gaza lately? And have you seen what ICE is doing with mass deportation? What has an armed populace done to stop either? Nothing, because they aren't capable. This isn't the 18th century. This is the Drone Age.

Gaza is literally the result of fighter jets. Not drones. Also, Israel does not have control of the area. The war is ongoing. Gazans aint even paying them taxes yet. As to ICE they go to urban areas where anti-gun laws are at their strongest do they not?

What anti-gun laws? Are you still living in the 1900s? There are no city-level laws about guns. Are you aware of Heller? McDonald?

My dude . . . Really? You're really that misinformed? Big cities flout court cases as readily as presidents and governors.
