Steve was talking about B-52s, not all aircraft. His point still stands.

Dear lord, I'm helping a conservative.

And you missed the point entirely that they were backed by a superpower, just like the American revolutionaries were.
So the question you missed is who is going to back the American with an M-16, as if they have no big backers then they cannot be compared to N. Vietnam at all.

Irrelevant. How many aircraft were shot down has nothing to do with the question I originally addressed. You're picking nits.

Actually I was talking about surviving the bombing and fighting on.

What makes you think I'm a conservative?

You are still going in circles.
You didn't address it as a states armed forces with foriegn backing are nothing at all like the issue in question.

Every one knows that Mexicans will take care of that.:haha:

Only because you're making me

That had nothng to do with Oberon's original question, which I answered. It's always more complex than can be stated without a full-page tome, then and now.

So we have a civil war against the federal government lets say red states against blue states, and they the feds managed to coherse some pilots to fly against the american people,, breaking their oath,, remeber, states have the air national guard and the states have the right to protect their sovernity the question ought to be could blue states take red states and how many service men and women would break their oath and turn against the american people, if red states stop producing and giving services to northern blue states I believe they would starve or they would end up looking like north korea...As it stands now 340 sheriffs won't support the governments assult on the 2nd amendment.

Your surrounded. Lay down your arms and give yourself up.

I think Chesty Puller, said it the best, now that we are surrounded we won't have any problem finding the enemy. or was it Nutz

I was just pointing out that due to the other factors involved N. Vietnam is an example that does not answer the question.

Thanks, I'll add that one to my list of movies to not see. :O:

The soldiers in the field survived the bombings. Not through airpower or foreign backing. All that bombing just failed to kill them. Yes, you're right; they recieved a lot of help to keep them supplied, which helped keep them going. I only spoke to their surviving the bombings.

FAIL :oops:

Possibly through the environment though, and Vietnam has a very different environment to America.

LOL.

That's the problem with being a true independent. Some issues (guns) get me labeled an arch-conservative and some (abortion) get me called a flaming liberal. I catch it from both sides, and I can't win.

WAY TO GO DALLAS I mean Texas,, and I never watch that show,,, I think the Air National Gaurd is also flying A-10s and apche attack helicopters,, I don't think big sis's armored cars will like the business end of that 30mm cannon or a 20mm for that matter if it comes down to push and shove.

A10s aren't known for their liking of SAMs and AAAs either...if it came down to push and shove.

got a better map

As of jan 12 2013 30 state signed petitions to succeed from the federal government,,I'd say someone is a little out numbered,,,that also goes for those black helicopters with no markings if it comes to push beomes shove...it :O:took me the damnist time to get that phrase spit out. I know New York ain't going to fight against any red state they can't have more than 7 rounds in their guns at anytime, I think I heard there was more hunters in the woods the first day of deer season than are federal employees.

Let the games begin.
