texas alone as 1 state has over 1 million registered hunters witch means well over 1 million texans have guns just the 1 state alone China has the biggest troop army at over 2 million the USA citizens alone could defend their country
Gun ownership doesn't even matter all that much. The historical fact is that training someone to shoot takes very little time. So it's less about individual gun ownership and more about small-arms per capita and how you raise, arm, organize, and train conscripts. An individual gun owner with a small arsenal working mostly alone or in a disorganized unit just isn't very effective. Even in large numbers.
@@streetracer1086 The British were initially beaten by an organized militia, and later were beaten by a continental army that benefited from French naval support while having a huge homeland advantage. Disorganized random gun owners had nothing to do with the British defeat.
@@streetracer1086 The Truth of how useful militias were in the Revolution tends to either get downplayed or exaggerated today. Sometimes they fought rather well, though they were subject to panics and, at times, lack of discipline led to victories escaping them or to downright defeats. Gun-grabbers love to pretend citizen soldiers are useless on modern battlefields (forgetting how effective guerrilla warfare is esp when the enemy is still fighting a regular military and thus has less ability to defend its supply lines) 'because nukes' (as if you want to make a habit of using nukes on lands you want to invade), while some Citizen Militia types tend to forget just how much more flexibility and usefulness the former Continental Army militia men showed when they were properly trained by von Steuben. Citizen Militias are good for several things IF one remembers they aren't as disciplined or trained in manuevar as a regular army A) Providing their morale holds and they have something to protect, they are pretty decent holding fortified or mountainous or otherwise protected positions. B) With additional training (but not as much as to become regular army) they can make pretty decent saboteurs. C) Even as individuals they can act as snipers, at least the hunters can. D) Even as just mostly untrained civilians with just basic firearms training they can often make the cost of mass killings or brutal occupations unsustainable. An invading army doesn't want to have to worry about its garrisons taking significant losses because they pissed off or scared the local civilians. These are additional manpower costs, costs that can sometimes mean the difference between victory or defeat.
But as an American we want you our friend (New Zealand) - we are both former British colonies to feel as safe as we do. An attack on our friend is an attack on us. And I know that the Kiwis are the ones who took Monte Cassino in WWII. I enjoyed this video and i subscribed because of it.
Bro please start with Pelosi lol 😂 I feel in this last year it’s become more evident that the domestic list is now longer than the foreign list of enemy’s to the republic.
I like the way they describe Seattle and Tacoma ports as vulnerable because they are only defended by 5 bases. These guys also seem to be under the impression those ports are on the Pacific coast instead of an inland sound separated from the Pacific Ocean by a mountain range and reached by a long strait. Both ports would require passing not one, but four naval bases including a naval air station and a submarine base before they ever got close to Seattle.
the US is the only country with citizen's with build guns everywhere. so not only chinese and russian soldiers be fighting american soldiers but million and millions of heavyly armed american civilians...doubling or tripling the manpower russia and china has to face.

The biggest part left out of this video and is never counted is civilian gun ownership. If you only count licensed hunters, because they have more familiarity with their guns and fieldcraft, a state like Wisconsin would have the 8th largest stating army worldwide.

@@sabin97 What the fuck are you even talking about? We're not trying to pose a threat to our Military. The Government doesn't "allow" us to keep them, they can't take them from us. We outnumber them. Precisely what is your definition of "civilian grade"? This country is FULL of rifles equal to, or more powerful than the rifles that won WWII. There are all kinds of EXACT military rifles, with the ONLY difference being that they aren't fully automatic weapons when you buy them. You can go in a store and buy a .50 Calibre rifle, with better optics, than most militaries in the world. Finally, dumbass, we don't need to procure a Lockheed Martin F-35. They're already ours. Our Second Amendment is useless? Your military couldn't defeat our civilian population.
I’m pretty sure the main reason the second amendment exists is so the citizens can defend themselves from a tyrannical government, the military is what’s there to defend/deter against invasion
@@clutchr6688 a tyrannical government could be considered one that could not hold their own to defend against an invasion in my opinion. or if invaders began to control the area they invaded.
I’d love to see a semi-realistic film about a fictional invasion of the US, where the protagonists faction isn’t just a few teenagers with no training, but a large militia of people with firearms knowledge and training led by a group of ex-military types that ends up working alongside the military against the invaders.
That actually is one thing a lot of people talk about, the fact that a good part of the US civilian population owns guns. The military would only be part of the battle but that's also assuming the citizens in question would be willing to fight.

Did you forget the tens of millions of civilians with rifles, and excellent rifle skills? America isn't going to be invaded. The only way America is going to fall is through civil war, which America is steadily marching too atm.
New Zealand would be hard to invade too. It's remote, and even though the military is small it's also tough. Islands are mountainous. China could probably take control of some coastal cities and air, but they could never truly take over NZ in the short term. Then yes, NZ has a lot of friends that would lose their minds if anyone tried invading them.

We are armed, and we know how to use said arms.

This makes no mention about how many guns we citizens have. I live and work in a typical suburb in Southern California, and between just three people in my circle is an entire literal arsenal.
So many people in America own guns, that I doubt we'd bug the military too much, we know they have other things to do. The invaders better watch out for Democratic granny with her shotguns, and her Machine gun carrying Republican grandsons.
Our military would be free to attack the enemies countries, our citizens would be like, WE GOT THIS, you go on over there. OH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. right?
Also, if an enemy happens to gain a foothold on US soil, there are 200 million private gun owners and tons of veterans. The People will form militia units to augment regular forces. An enemy would have to literally fight through every town and city, street to street, to successfully invade the US.
We may fight among ourselves like spoiled siblings, but let some country try to invade us and I guarantee we will come together. In the immortal words of Roy D. Mercer "somebody's about to open a 55 gallon drum of whoop @$$"
US Navy vet here who just found you... one of the biggest issues the whole "seaport landing" idea has is that those large ships (if they had enough) require local tugboat and pilot services to successfully dock at a pier. How much cooperation do you think the locals would give invaders... especially in Mobile, Houston, New Orleans, etc. Not to mention you have at LEAST six air bases (Air Force and Navy) within a maybe two- hour flight at the most from any of those ports/ the Gulf of Mexico. No fleet trying to reach a southern US port would stand a chance to get their feet dry.
There are more guns than people in the US, I highly doubt a full force invasion could be done. Even if one such nation attempted, it would take years, maybe even close to a decade. To make this more realistic, you’d also have to factor in America’s allies. Russia and China may team up, but I’m pretty sure Canada, Britain, France, Germany, South Korea, and Japan would come to America’s aid in the form of an invasion through Europe and Asia. It’s also worthy to note that China’s economy wouldn’t last the years it would take while attempting to invade America. As America is one of China’s key economic partners.
Simply put: yes. In the very unlikely chance an invasion could even get to the homeland in the first place. The video also doesn't even mention the fact that our population is heavily armed.

There is some speculation that Lee could have gotten a substantial part of his army out of the siege at Richmond by sneaking them out in small units, and they could have taken shelter in the local hills and conducted guerilla warfare, and it would have taken over twenty years to get them out. But the confederate army had been mauled so badly that they didn't have much appetite for that.

Gun ownership doesn't even matter all that much. The historical fact is that training someone to shoot takes very little time. So it's less about individual gun ownership and more about small-arms per capita and how you raise, arm, organize, and train conscripts.
An individual gun owner with a small arsenal working mostly alone or in a disorganized unit just isn't very effective. Even in large numbers.
@@Carakav uh tell that to the British
@@streetracer1086 The British were initially beaten by an organized militia, and later were beaten by a continental army that benefited from French naval support while having a huge homeland advantage.
Disorganized random gun owners had nothing to do with the British defeat.
@@streetracer1086 The Truth of how useful militias were in the Revolution tends to either get downplayed or exaggerated today. Sometimes they fought rather well, though they were subject to panics and, at times, lack of discipline led to victories escaping them or to downright defeats. Gun-grabbers love to pretend citizen soldiers are useless on modern battlefields (forgetting how effective guerrilla warfare is esp when the enemy is still fighting a regular military and thus has less ability to defend its supply lines) 'because nukes' (as if you want to make a habit of using nukes on lands you want to invade), while some Citizen Militia types tend to forget just how much more flexibility and usefulness the former Continental Army militia men showed when they were properly trained by von Steuben. Citizen Militias are good for several things IF one remembers they aren't as disciplined or trained in manuevar as a regular army A) Providing their morale holds and they have something to protect, they are pretty decent holding fortified or mountainous or otherwise protected positions. B) With additional training (but not as much as to become regular army) they can make pretty decent saboteurs. C) Even as individuals they can act as snipers, at least the hunters can. D) Even as just mostly untrained civilians with just basic firearms training they can often make the cost of mass killings or brutal occupations unsustainable. An invading army doesn't want to have to worry about its garrisons taking significant losses because they pissed off or scared the local civilians. These are additional manpower costs, costs that can sometimes mean the difference between victory or defeat.
China would just bring over 350 million men. meat grinder. Russia would bring 90 million. just absolutely tire out the US.

I like the way they describe Seattle and Tacoma ports as vulnerable because they are only defended by 5 bases. These guys also seem to be under the impression those ports are on the Pacific coast instead of an inland sound separated from the Pacific Ocean by a mountain range and reached by a long strait. Both ports would require passing not one, but four naval bases including a naval air station and a submarine base before they ever got close to Seattle.

There are all kinds of EXACT military rifles, with the ONLY difference being that they aren't fully automatic weapons when you buy them. You can go in a store and buy a .50 Calibre rifle, with better optics, than most militaries in the world.
Finally, dumbass, we don't need to procure a Lockheed Martin F-35. They're already ours. Our Second Amendment is useless? Your military couldn't defeat our civilian population.

That actually is one thing a lot of people talk about, the fact that a good part of the US civilian population owns guns.

New Zealand would be hard to invade too. It's remote, and even though the military is small it's also tough. Islands are mountainous. China could probably take control of some coastal cities and air, but they could never truly take over NZ in the short term. Then yes, NZ has a lot of friends that would lose their minds if anyone tried invading them.

Thank you for acknowledging that the USA is ALWAYS a willing partner in the defense of their allies.
Before watching I can tell you that this will never happen. Too many US citizens have there own weapons
Also, if an enemy happens to gain a foothold on US soil, there are 200 million private gun owners and tons of veterans. The People will form militia units to augment regular forces. An enemy would have to literally fight through every town and city, street to street, to successfully invade the US.
Remember, "they" said they would destroy us from within.
We may fight among ourselves like spoiled siblings, but let some country try to invade us and I guarantee we will come together.
In the immortal words of Roy D. Mercer "somebody's about to open a 55 gallon drum of whoop @$$"
US Navy vet here who just found you... one of the biggest issues the whole "seaport landing" idea has is that those large ships (if they had enough) require local tugboat and pilot services to successfully dock at a pier. How much cooperation do you think the locals would give invaders... especially in Mobile, Houston, New Orleans, etc.
Not to mention you have at LEAST six air bases (Air Force and Navy) within a maybe two- hour flight at the most from any of those ports/ the Gulf of Mexico. No fleet trying to reach a southern US port would stand a chance to get their feet dry.
There are more guns than people in the US, I highly doubt a full force invasion could be done. Even if one such nation attempted, it would take years, maybe even close to a decade.
To make this more realistic, you’d also have to factor in America’s allies. Russia and China may team up, but I’m pretty sure Canada, Britain, France, Germany, South Korea, and Japan would come to America’s aid in the form of an invasion through Europe and Asia.
It’s also worthy to note that China’s economy wouldn’t last the years it would take while attempting to invade America. As America is one of China’s key economic partners.
Let's not forget USA people are armed too😁
