I'm from the Appalachians... Madison county is a weird place I grew up there county over and really tried to stay out of there. Everything after the bango playing would earn that R RATING. "Y'all ain't from round here" worst thing those boys would hear! 🤣
Its already totally lost, turns out the US didnt need a strong military or nukes to defend itself. It needed term limits, and it needed to enforce monopoly better. If any country wants to take over America you can buy the non government corporations on the inside and influence outward. This video is useless.
That statement " united we stand, divided we fall " makes a lot of sense, hence the reason many people in the US are trying to destroy us from the inside. Sad many people are falling for the stuff thats being pushed. We in America need to come together again!! America is worth saving!!
I am a Canadian and I would fight for America’s defence. It is fair to say our countries have had each other’s backs for a long time. When the towers were hit Canada, UK, and France answered without a second thought. We would do it again if America was threatened.
On Sept 11, 2001 - I will always be grateful to our friends, the Canadians.... UK & France for responding and helping, putting up many of our people stranded in Canada, patrolling our skies for our protection just after that horrible time!! Will never forget ... !!!!!!!!
@richardrivers6909 I flew for American Airlines at that time. American and United Airlines were the U.S. Airliners involved. The Canadians took in several airliners that were grounded in Canada by the FAA after the attacks. The Canadians took care of the passengers & crews, inviting so many into their homes, taking some to hotels which also opened their doors to them. (There may have been other countries that did the same for the U.S. planes, however, I only heard about what the Canadians did for us.) There were joint patrols over the U.S. & our coastal waters with fighter jets from those countries in conjunction with ours looking for possible further enemy attacks. We were part of the United Nations. We were being supported during a time of terrorist attack. I am not sure how many jets were involved or for how long but I think it was for a few days. It happened on a Tuesday and the commercial flights were resumed again on the following Saturday. There were flight crew members that quit; many that were not able to make themselves physically get on any of the planes to resume their jobs for months & none were fired. I resumed flying on that Saturday (to get back in the saddle so to speak) but was on high alert and jumpy for about a year while on the job. It was terribly sad and exhausting. What a time in history.
YW. As a Brit, I was proud to stand besides our cousins across the pond. The problem with being an impenetrable techno-fortress with weaker and less well equipped enemies... is that warfare becomes asymmetric. But, asymmetric warfare is, itself, symmetric! Whilst the US certainly has the advantage in the military asymmetry - it still has nuts that hang low and invite reciprocal asymmetry. So, there's a problem with analysing threat situations positively, in terms of a 'stand-up' fight. Such thinking relies on the fight being conventional. On 9/11, America was kicked in the nuts. But the next attack on Americas nut-sack could be considerably less recoverable. Such as cargo-delivered nukes delivered into major container ports. The US container ports are IMMENSE... VITAL... and almost impossible to properly protect. They also constitute a covert delivery mechanism handling HUGE global volume, and that provides credible deniability for the attacker. If you're targeting the US nut-sack... container ports are exposed to coordinated attacks like no other. I think that naively comparing military capabilities may well be utterly irrelevant and could lead to a false sense of security.
We always make fun of one another but I love Canada. It's my second favorite country next to my mother land of Finland. I'd always have Canadas back in any time of battle.
I feel a great swell of pity for any fool who tries to invade the United States. As a Canadian I can proudly say that even if our Gov was to refuse to help. Canada's people would with out a doubt stand and fight with the USA. WE STAND ON GUARD FOR THEE !
while canadians and americans make fun of each other from time to time, i think most of us know that no matter where this ship is headed, sink or swim we're in this together all of the way
We only make fun of each other because we're family and we love and respect each other. Y'all got our backs to the north and US desert dwellers down here on the coast we gotcha back from the south
@@raywalteroutdoors pretty sure NY has bigger GDP than the whole of canada, which would then make sense that civic services have a budget proportionate to their respective incomes
One aspect of the armed citizens they didn't mention is the 15 million veterans. I am 1 of those 15 million. Most of us are not only willing to fight but we still take our oath of service seriously. I live offgrid in the 6th largest county in the country, 75% of the people I know out there have at least 1 veteran in the home and 2 right off the top of my head are Vietnam snipers. Any invader would spill blood for every inch they took. I think the veterans and citizens would be a more aggressive threat than the military. All the anger and frustration we have towards each other and the government would be directed towards the invaders.
Not to mention getting that DD214 didn’t erase our knowledge of how to operate the armor, trucks artillery etc…. And most of us are pretty close to a National guard armory with all those toys
Absolutely. But our biggest threat comes from within. Our biggest threat is our own government and the unelected globalist elitists who control many of our politicians

Right on Marine, US vet here, and yeah, we are armed, willing and ready. Canada/US/Mexico is a solid brotherhood, I've done missions with both, and they are rock solid. Side note: much respect to the Canadians in WW2, they were absolute savages in warfare.
My whole adult life I've heard people say 100 bad things about the USA for every one positive thing. Just feels so good to hear and read people having our backs and saying positive stuff. Firm handshakes to all our brothers and sisters fighting the good fight :)
Success brings jealousy, it's as true for an individual as for a country. We also often forget how great the USA is, in my ways. I guess people are so used to your country's dominance/influence that we aren't aware of it anymore.
@@shakya00 i wouldn't call an overgrown military success, i mean its not bad in other factors but far from number 1, the video comperes military capabilities which america is anbeatable since they can use a half milion dollar missle on everyithing that looks at them.
@Phantom knight I'm curious, if you don't consider the US to be the most successful country, which country is, in your opinion, and what metrics would you use to determine your choice? (Really a legit question not trying to be snarky)
As far as neighbors go, you would be hard pressed to find better neighbors than Canada. Canadians are independent minded, tough and friendly. We’re truly blessed to have Canada to the north of us.
Exactly. If you think for a SECOND, that any country is just gonna stroll through Canada, you're sorely mistaken. We in the States know how tough those Canuck SOB's are. They HAVE to be just to live in that Godforsaken place. There's literally NOBODY I'd rather have my back in a fight, than a Canadian.
@@davidmacko983 Regardless of whether or not they own guns, they still have a military and are friendly to us. Forces coming through Alaska would still have to go through Canada and that means going to war with the British Commonwealth as well.
As an American, i appreciate the praise and respect to our military prowess but i recognize that a good chunk of that heritage comes from our British friends as Britain's military dominated the world for the 1700s- WW2
As a Canadian if any foreign troops start anything with North America. I'd be there in a heartbeat as millions more would as well. " Behind every blade of grass " love my American neighbors. God bless y'all
that's a love that goes both ways brother, if anyone EVER gave Canada or Mexico smoke, dear god would we insist that shit's personal. whatever invading force there is, would immediately face counter offensives on their own soil. hellfire would rain from the skies.
To me, this is the funniest part about imagining an invasion. Imagine your ship makes it across the ocean, survives the air raids and gets close enough for you to make land. You make your way up the beach, fighting every step of the way. Till you round a corner of a building or crest a hill, just to be greeted by Bob Jones with a sawn off shotgun in one hand and a beer in the other. Edit: Been going through the comments and reading about how the Canadians would jump to defend the US. Thanks, Canadians. That actually warms my heart. Hope everyone who reads this has an amazing day :)
LMFAO, this cracks me up. Because it's 100% true. And there would be a Bob Jones around every corner, of every building, inside of every window, on top of every roof.
It's funny you mentioned the size of 29 Palms. I was stationed there for a little over a year. Your mind would be blown by the size of Camp Pendleton in CA.
yeah honestly thats the real problem any country would face. if you manage to get past 2million troops you now have to deal with 150million gun owners.
@@lcd8180 many of those gun owners own multiple guns and would happily arm friends, family, and neighbors, so there's a good chance you would have to deal with a lot more a than that. Hell, my crazy uncle could probably arm 40+ people alone lmao
@@bryanitza-chulopez1658 I really wish both Mexico and the US would get their act together and secure the border. Honestly, what would people think if the US just crossed the Rio Grande and claimed one mile in and back is the US until Mexico figures out what they are going to do.
I love the idea of a North American world. At that point we'd have tacos, burgers, and putine united. It used to be that way when I could get over borders with my driver's license. I blame Canada honestly. ;)
Retired Air Force here. 2 points. If Mexico or Canada were ever in danger of being invaded in both the spirit of neighbors, allies, and friendship, we would bring the full weight of the US military for the aid of their security with zero doubt. The second point is if an invading military really made it to mainland, behind every blade of grass would be an American with a gun and a renewed sense of patriotism for their lands defense. Love your videos, you do your legacy proud sir.
Unfortunately our enemies are already invading our country, they're coming in disguised as illegals that Biden is allowing to cross our borders daily and they're being distributed across the states so be ready
I'm an American who grew up close to the Canadian border and knew quite a few Canadians. I feel like Canada would not hesitate to aid the US militarily in the event of an invasion, especially if it was in Alaska as that would be an immediate and direct threat to them as well. I think Mexico would help too, but with perhaps a bit more hesitation unless they were directly drawn into it.
As an American civilian in the midwest, I can confirm that we're all armed to the teeth. Getting past our military would just be the first step of an impossible invasion. Step 2 would be dealing with a couple hundred million pissed off civilians such as myself 😁
I too can confirm that many midwesterners (outside of the largest cities anyway) are very well armed. I know plenty who aren't, but a lot of people I know have at least one firearm stowed away for home defense, just for safe keeping.
Hell I'm not even Midwestern (Oregon), and I have 8 guns in my house and ammunition for 6 of them. God bless the 2nd Amendment and our continued fight for gun rights.
I'm from Ohio and we've got a big military presence here. It's even bigger up north but here in the capital city of Columbus it's mostly the Rickenbacker Airport that gets all the attention since it's a commercial airport. The amount of military in every state let alone across the world is mind blowing when you did into it all.
I live in Alaska. There are very few roads here due to the mountains. We could destroy a few bridges and completely stop any movement then while stopped decimate them from mountain passes. So many active duty and retired military here we make up a huge part of the population. As for the rest of the country, millions of hunters that know the land and can shoot. This is one of the reasons for our second amendment. Love your channel by the way
I was just thinking this. Some of our hardiest citizens live in the bush in Alaska. These men and women know the land and are proficient hunters and foragers. Any adversary that chooses to attack through Alaska, would have to face these men and women. This not including our Armed Forces and Canadian neighbors in that area 😅.
@@avice10535 the only way to get through east to west is a road called the Glenn highway. Then the tok road on to Canada lots of bridges and passes so many chock points. Those of us that hunt moose and bear can shoot a pie pan out to 300 plus’s yards. Some I know out to a thousand. Anyone trying to get through would be in real trouble. If held up long they would have to face the weather. I live here and know how to protect myself and I don’t want to get trapped in it.
Yep. I don't know where in Ak you are but the guys I've talked to about it all said the same thing. Blow out the bridges and pick them off there. I think even in winter most of us would be fine if we were cut off from town for a while and if we weren't we'd have neighbors that would help us out. I love Alaska- best state in the country.
@@1coketogo554 And even if by some fluke they managed to get through, we've got a small amount of troops but our doctrine in that scenario is to split into 3 man reconnaissance teams and relive 'WOLVERINES'! One thing not mentioned it that a sizeable proportion of Canadians are also related to Americans, as if someone's just gonna sit by and watch their relatives get F'd over! Washington, Minnesota, Michigan, Texas, Vermont, Georgia, Florida, Virginia, and probably a few others I lost off the top of my head are going to have my life standing between them and any jerk off that wants to try!
I live in Alaska, we have multiple military bases and every single person I know has at least 6 different weapons, from hunting rifles to Ak’s and in most cases thousands of rounds.
From a US Marine, thank you guys for having our backs. UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, all and further. We've got you just the same. You're respected and appreciated. And thank you, Sir for the 29 Palms shout out. Get some.
Well I have to say that...AS THE RESIDENT RESEARCH NERD CIVILIAN... It really all boils down to sociology and psychology so.. television is not war. My best friend is former USMC 29 palms 0331 twice deployed so it's just like the war in the Ukraine. As an American - do I think it's the most important thing ever? Not necessarily. Morally it's fucked up but that's war period. But I can also sit here and say that as an American, I honestly didn't think about the simple geographic location (just location the other stuff I obviously thought about) because I'm a contractor for the doe and think about the advanced EMR type defenses. That's called being human! (Or autistic 😁)I will be wrong again. My only problem is when people don't admit it. And that basic psychology/sociology isn't taught to kids -- (If it was, well, ya don't gotta say it I get the catch 22 of who's teaching them) would be the second problem. Thanks for sticking decent information out there as some people just. Wanna trek through Alaska and haven't left a city in their lives.
As an American, if a foreign power did try to invade by way of Mexico or Canada then our culture is such that Canada, Mexico, and the USA would definitely see each other as One country and tell the invaders "OH HELL NO."
Yeah, the USA 🇺🇸.. if anyone attacks us on our own soil, right now, the USA would turn that entire country into a sheet of glass without spilling our coffee, all while we never eveb left our desk.. lol 😆 🤣.. hopefully they are not that stupid, and especially if you combine the USA with Canada, Mexico, UK, and many more, that i just didn't name.. then its not the smartest thing to do is attack north America in general.. especially the USA itself.. but just even attacking the north American continent would be the dumbest thing another country could possibly do.. attack Canada and USA if ya want too.. but.. they better be prepared to get their own country instantly frozen like Elsa.. 😆 🤣..
@donjuan7597 exactly, although Argentinians may be hesitant to fight alongside brits. but people tend to really overlook Latin Americas relations with the US military. Brazil helped a sizable amount in wwii and Latin America was the most receptive by far of the great white fleet we put on tour to flex our navy in the early 20th century. All love for my American brothers and sisters throughout the continents. My dream is for one day the Americas to be as developed and stable as Europe to the point where the US can leave NATO and form an alliance among the Americas, that way we can leave Eurasia alone and maintain our old isolationist ways without much worry. Nobody would attack a structurally sound, unified (in terms of alliances not sovereignty) America.
I'm french canadian and even if american politics sometimes seem alien to some of us, they're still our brothers. Our military is not big by any means but judging by our effort in the second world war, we can muster it up pretty quickly if needed. So I concur, going through us would not be easy in any way (and the weather is crazy cold, Siberia like, in winter) and we would send backup if needed for sure. Hell, they're helping us with the forest fires right now and we send snow plows to new york every other year!
If they tried to go through you, No doubt in mind all of us would come rushing to help you too. I'm from Texas, I can't deal with the cold, so if worst comes to worst, and something like that does happen one day. Pack an extra blanket for me, because I'll be right there ducking behind rocks with you.
The sentiment is the same from down here as well. I don't understand much of what's going on up there, but at the end of the day, we've got each others' backs. Cheers!
I wouldn't want to do something so stupid as angering Canada to the point that they are going to fight. But, if a country were stupid enough to invade Canada, I have no doubt that the US population would rally around Canada. I also pity any country stupid enough to invade Mexico. The cartels are extremely heavily armed and would be extremely unlikely to just allow invaders in.
Exactly! And with the southern border being wide open and experts saying in the past 2 yrs up to 100 million including those from countries like China Russia and the Middle East were set to be overthrown from within.
Regarding North American geography; around 2010 the head of the Canadian Navy said, “if anyone tries to invade Canada from the north our first job will be to rescue them.”😊
Not bringing race into it(not really), I’ll say that as a brown skinned American veteran, we have always stood up to defend her and will always. This video affirmed what most people don’t mind to realize. Thank you for sharing it. All Americans a very fortunate but we need to do more internally for each other. Canada, we love you guys and that weirdly good fry thing you got going on. I also don’t think this video spent any time on our air power, as we have some of the most badass pilots up there, they are without doubt unmatched. -Appalachian born Texan…they should’ve even never set their boots on the ground.
I never was able to serve due to a preexisting condition, BUT one of the men I have the most respect for is a black man named Cleve who retired in the early 2000’s as a Colonel in the army. Damn good man. I think he would agree with you.
As an American veteran myself, the comments here amaze me. The shear love everyone shows for our friends and neighbors is astounding. The pride I feel for my country is immense and it literally brings tears to my eyes knowing I am not alone. The US military might is unmatched, however, it is our people and relations with our allies that truly make us great. This was an amazing video. The respect you have shown towards us runs both ways brother. Having the opportunity to train with the British military myself, I deeply respect you guys as well.
Our country has been seized by corrupt politicians, is being led by the most corrupt of them, a guy that is politically assassinating his political opponent with false indictments and a weaponized justice system, has the voting system openly rigged, kids are being aborted in record numbers, more are being surgically mutilated and indoctrinated by leftist/progressive nut jobs, our education system has been taken over by the same insane progressives.......and you feel PRIDE?!?!?! You should be ashamed of yourself and it's the same shame all of us real patriots feel these days.
@@chainsawsubtlety9828 That’s what happens when you have no one left to fight. You have all that time to stare at yourself in the mirror. Often you only notice the things you DONT like about yourself.
I loved how you brought up the diverse landscape we have here in the United States. I’m a Utah native and I don’t think foreign troops would do well in my state. In the west we have salt flats and the great salt lake. In the north we have heavy snow, canyons, and valleys. In the east we have more snow and the Rocky Mountains and Uintas. They’re so tall, deep and complicated that you have to be born here and/or raised around them to traverse them. (I’ve always said if there was an apocalypse I’d go up there). In the south we have deserts and red rocks/canyons. That’s all in ONE state! Plus, a lot of people here are locked and loaded! 😂
They would have to get through the cascade mountains first. And seeing as there ate only a few passes they would be bottleneck. I'm pretty sure Russia doesn't want a repeat of Kiev.
Im canadian and i know if need it would be the largest wave of Canadians heading south since 1812, and same with the Mexicans. They were some of the first people on the ground in Louisiana for hurricane Katrina they are close their helpful and gracious They’re not expeditionary but their defensive and they’ll help out in North America no questions about it, our tri lateral meetings arent called the three amigos for nothing
And they wouldn't even get TO america because as soon as we heard of landings in either country (especially you guys my Canadian brother), they'd be meeting American forces right alongside y'all. MEX-USA-CA
We Americans would be rushing up to help you guys in Canada the same way if anyone either invaded you or tried using you as a jump point as well and I know both countries would happily accept the help from each other. Same with Mexico. We disagree on certain things, run our countries differently, but we are VERY tight when it comes down to defending each other its been that way for a long time.
NORAD forever. If anyone ever attacked any of us they'd be in for a real surprise. Making jokes and jabs is one thing but when shit hits the fan, you're basically fighting one unified continent.
Hello next door neighbor. Another thing that any enemy should never underestimate about the United States of America is despite our politicians always trying to get our guns away from us, we will die before we will give them up.. to think about America having something like three hundred and fifty-six million Americans & the average household has somewhere around three or four guns but not every household has a gun.. most of the gun owners are in the South and Southeast and I'm in the Northern areas like The Dakotas Wyoming Montana etc etc and those are the legal gun owners for the most part where people have 10 or more guns per household because they hunt and they go to the shooting range... The American government and the socialists here just don't get it because the Democrats are always talking about wanting to take our guns away.. they shouldn't worry about us because we're just like backed up military really.. if people don't know much about the United States one of the biggest mistakes they ever make would be to invade the southeastern United States from Virginia all the way down to Florida..
I hope you mean having both a good time spent with them as well as a good many happy hours at bars and such. We Americans like drinks but UK is on another level on proper imbibing
As a veteran of the armed forces, I cannot stress enough how deep my love and respect is for our allies, in particular the Canadians and Brits. Ran naval exercises with them in 2013,14, and 15 and a more incredible group of folks I have never met. We are all brothers and sisters in arms and in peace. Always.
I love the brits! Great sense of humor (unlike my neighbors here) and Story time ...in Bucca we typically do lpw altitude fly bys as a SOF to mortars fired at us...(we wanted to minimize civilian casualties I guess) well this particular night we took mortar fire and w out missing a beat ...a British artillery unit just happened to be based w us at that time...and w in minutes these chaps fired a 3 rd barage back at that location and we didn't get mortars again until they left 2 weeks later! 😂 😂
Marine to much blahblah what if 25+ Submarines fire Posidon large nuke torpedo from the middle of the ocean around the land and it travels very deep and silent to about a mile of beach around the land then boom game over for that any country how about that it's real now guess who can enjoy??? BS Channel blocked keep your fake news nonsense for only 30k people without a brain that like this trash vid LOL hahaha
As a U.S Citizen and an immigrant I would enlist to defend this country without a second thought. This land has given me everything I have (much more than the place I was born) and deserves all I can offer.
If we as US citizens came together to protect our rights as outlined in the constitution, this country would actually be vastly better in every aspect. And we wouldn’t have to worry about foreign enemies because we understand to stay out of foreign conflicts.
As mentioned before, all the veterans are a force to be reckoned with, not to mention their immediate families. Patriotism and the will to fight is contagious. As a country, we will beat this propaganda war we are in, now, too. Thanks for your Service AND Support!
? Look around at the culture wars raging between the right and the left. It didn't always use to be like that. Look at how often people bash politicians, and political institutions. It wasn't always like that. Our competitors have news articles in their home countries about the "troll factories" that they run 24/7 just to screw with us. Fake accounts on every type of social media, journalists paid to write articles that inflame instead of inform, hell even the fight against vaccines is backed by Russia as a way to weaken our country's overall health Our enemies are absolutely winning the propaganda war. Just look at how they've gotten us to turn on each other.
@@rayzerot great point. Spot on. You’d think our own media would support their fellow citizens. That shit went out door decades ago. Now they are pushing to censor those on social media they don’t agree with. The MSM can’t stand opposition and want back control of the narrative

Texan here as well. I'd be standing right next to @lanceowens962 to defend Canada if needed. Never mind the politicians, Canada is and always has been one of our best friends in the world.
Another Texan here. There was a post I saw somewhere that the number of registered hunters in Texas would make us like the 5 th largest army in the world. The old joke of an officer knocks on a Texans door and asks , you have any guns in there? Answers, why, what do you need?
Well come down here to the southern border of the U.S.. 250,000+ are invading every month from over 150 nations, and those are just the ones that escape apprehension.
I just want to thank you for your posts, very informative! I'm in central Kansas, lots of vets and hunters, have a Vietnam vet sniper a block away. Most Americans are prepared to defend home, family and country! It's also a great comfort having our brothers and sisters in Canada, we love them as well as all our allies across the globe! Mexico, U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Israel, Germany, Japan, France and the rest! God Bless you and yours , keep up the great work!
Hopefully most canadians will wake up to the fact that the USA is the biggest group of terrorists in the world and stop supporting them. They are just saying nice things because they are scared the USA will massacre us like they have the rest of the world. Luckily we aren't communists. But whos to talk the Chinese have Biden and Trudeau in their back pockets.
Yea, nobody messes with America's hat. Seriously, as a matter of self interest, if someone were to attack Canada, or Mexico for that matter, it would be a major threat to the US. Sure we would defend Canada out of friendship, and sure we would defend Canada out of treaty obligations, but we would also defend them as a matter of our own national survival.
One thing they didn't mention directly is the sheer number of US military veterans in the civilian populace that would either be recalled to duty or be active in civilian defense.
The amount of people that practice marksmanship and those that hunt is insane in the US. Even with high casualties just the hunters alone could put major strain on supply lines if an enemy can even set foot on land.
The destruction of American will come from within. Guaranteed. It's revolting but true. Everyday words like "honor," "patriotism," and "values" are looked upon by more and more of the masses with disdain. Unbelievable but true. We'll eat our own before an enemy from without ever rises to the level of an existential threat.
Yes having a "president", his cabinet and several members of Congress that are compromised by China, Russia and God only knows who else is not exactly comforting! That being said having the most capable military in history, the 2nd amendment and the fighting spirit of We The People most definitely IS!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Definitely subscribing dude. Your content is great and I love your honesty. It's really nice how if you aren't sure on something you admit it instead of just acting like you know everything like some people do.
If memory serves, the Japanese considered an invasion of the US lower 48 states. One of the major deterrents to was the guarantee of having to fight a protracted guerrilla war in Oregon and Washington State, against experienced woodsmen who often were crack shots. We’re talking about dudes who would go out to literally shoot dinner with a single round and had been doing that on a daily basis virtually from childhood. They realized that they simply didn’t have the manpower…
Not all but anyone in the more rural areas in the pacific northwest are outdoorsman. By that I mean we fish, hunt and shoot for recreation. Anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors also has in depth knowledge of the terrain around us. Vantage points, trails and certain resources are close by but not the easiest to get to. I've lived in Oregon and Washington my whole life and know the forest areas from Salem to Tacoma quite well...
@@PBSpiralGamer In my PNW town in the 90's it wasn't uncommon to see multiple people walking through the store with a bolt action slung on their back or with a buck on their hood. But in 1990 they stopped teaching kids how to use rifles in schools, so the remainder got to experience that through boyscouts which dissolved soon after. I grew up around hunters, my dad could drop a deer in one shot, sleeve it and quarter it where it fell. The vietnam vets didn't play around either. This area was rugged as all getout back then, you HAD to be a crackshot if you're working as a lumberjack in the cascade mountains. They're still out there, you know, they're just alot quieter than city folk.
@@PBSpiralGamer The “woodsmen” part was probably the scarier part. These guys were (still are) potentially the foundation of a frightfully effective guerrilla force even if most weren’t even close to being Nicholas Irving or Chris Kyle. If anything, it’d be worse for an invader because now there’s literally thousands of guys out there who have been trained to shoot in the military and have real-world experience fighting exactly this kind of war.
i dont know man. im all about heading north to stand next to them. but im going to tell you that they are not too bad at holding their own. i would agree they might need some support. but i would never say they need protected
@@typeterson6947 not wrong, however most of their support necessity is mostly sustainability. When looking at how Armed Forces worldwide fight, it's usually on their stomach. The US is said to have better sustainability and logistical high ground than any other country in the world, some countries combined still couldn't outresource the US. From what I've heard from HLC, all warfare comes down to how many bullets how many beans and how much gasoline(you get the idea, not trying to hate or argue, just am honestly curious if it's true though)
As US Marine Corps veteran I know that the vast majority of us will stand and defend ourselves and our Nation. I don't relish the idea, but I will wade in to the fight.
As a US citizen and veteran, I would lay my life on the line to protect our brothers to the North, and South. As for the CAN/MEX Citizens, I would hope that that feeling is mutual (absent of Government officials)! You never know whether your leadership is full of cowards. UK, we also have your back.
oh it's definitely not mutual. Canadians are friends, but south of the border, while the people are good at heart, they are way too compromised and controlled by the Cartels. Mexico is considered by many around the world as THE most dangerous place to live or visit right now.
@@escape808 If the time ever came, you would be more than thankful to the others risking their necks for yours. If not, then I hope they have the wisdom to let you die alone. Because alone is what you choose.
@@The_S.E.T._Game first off you have no clue what you’re talking about and it’s apparent. We eclipse Mexico in nearly every crime stat aside from murder then if you look deeper most of those are Cartel v Cartel and another big is Government V Cartel. My daughters moms family is from Guadalajara and it’s an amazing place along with most Mex cities. You regurgitate these things you hear on Fox and they are if not totally wrong then very misleading. Mexicans are genuine people. Would you like the whole of the US to be judged off of KKK, Bloods, Crips, Seraños, School shooters? You’ve probably never set foot in Mexico yet spew misinformation that you hear from brain dead pundits.
I'd make a deal with the cartels to get as many invaders addicted to their product as possible. Turn the invading army into a one big group of junkies.
As someone from someone from Texas. I’d say that our relationship with Mexico is tenuous but friendly. I guarantee you that if something were to happen on a global invasion scale that we would be backing each other up. We may be rough neighbors, but we’re not going to let someone else invade each other at this point too many people and families between our nations.
Mexico does not go to war against other countries, it's in the constitution, the country can't fight foreign wars. But it can help in other ways but definitely not with soldiers or weapons or fighting 🤷
@@naomiorozco5894 true but if Mexico got invaded America would stick its dick into whatever conflict was happening. They may not be so quick to help us but no way that the US just sits on a war next door to us.
13:42 there was a loud bang outside the other day here in Idaho. Six neighbors and myself all walked outside armed at about the same time. We looked around for a few minutes till we found out what had made the sound. We were all in our pajamas or shorts and it was about -7°F. So ya I don’t know how easy it would be to get past the civilians.
That’s great. And it’s interesting, I’m from NYC born and raised, and I now live in Georgia. I will tell you for a fact that both places would be near impenetrable, here’s why: In NYC between street gangs, and all types of organized crime, and the police force alone, the unarmed citizens of the city wouldnt need to act. In a time of invasion, the criminals would need to defend their turf the same way the police would need to defend its citizens. NYC has so many housing projects that are laid out in a way where you have 5-6 story buildings in 10-12 building clusters, these are usually high crime areas which means street gangs tend to occupy them. These criminals have MORE THAN a substantial amount of firearms at all times. These housing projects would end up being like giant maze like fortresses. And let’s not take away from the VERY alive russian and Italian mobs. Who no matter what home land they are from would very much protect their empire. Couple that with a very military like police force and the national guard and NYC is as good as it can be from invasion. Then you have a state like Georgia which I’m sure is not very different than your own in terms of gun rights and laws. I personally know plenty of people here with small arsenals in their home legally. They start teaching their children proper use and respect of weapons as small as 7-8 and even younger probably. So in these types of states with the crime and the police, you have a civilian militia at the ready. It would be a situation where I don’t know if the army being there would be a help Or not aside of medical aid because they would naturally restrict the civilians actions lol.
i wish i were true, but the cartels kinda run Mexico, and they're in cahoots with a certain Fentanyl supplier....who are already there....same can be said about canada, if you look at the port and airport in Canada vancouver and has it's own police station there...the invasion hss already occurred ...even Texas has sold out areas to some former CCP General like 140,000 acres in texas...wonder what's going on there.
I served with y’all during 29 palms! You guys are lethal and hilarious! The “pranks on the yanks” hour was something I’ll never forget. By the way, that is my weapon, I suck at break dancing and I dare you to leave another box of tea at the base of the flag on the 4th of July!
Hahaha! They left a box of tea at the base of the flag on the 4th! 😆 🤣 I lived in England when I was younger and was shocked when the Battle of New Orleans song came on while on a London Underground train!
While stationed in Berlin in the late 70s, some of the members of our sailing club sailed up the Wannsee to the British yacht club on the 4th of July. They tossed beach balls, marked “British Tea” into the British harbor. In turn, they received a thorough soaking from a British fire boat.
I love how honest you are even being a Veteran when you dont know something you say it right away then you listen carefully and say "ok" that's how we progress in life by being humble and willing to learn what we dont know, many Ytubers have the opposite reaction by showing they already know
@@Angel-Azrael I mean, not necessarily. Could just be possible supply issues like, let’s just go into a theoretical for a second, America has run out of M3 Bradly’s. We’d probably need the support from others to supply scout vehicles and IFVs to support defensive positions and move troops. Although I do see where you are coming from. You do make a valid point
Admiral Yamamoto was reluctant to attach the US because he knew what would happen. If I remember correctly after the successful attack on Pearl Harbor he was said to have spoken the line "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
Canada: twin brother, always with us even when we disagree. Mexico: little brother, ready to scrap at a moments notice for the fam. UK: wildcard cousin, who will pull out the big guns when we need a little family reunion. France: estranged cousin with all the cool toys, still showing up when it matters. South Korea: brother we adopted after we saw the sheer will, always ready to get down. Unbeatable combo, proven time and time again.
Haha France cowards, very original. I feel bad for France because they are seen as cowards from the result of two wars(which they were outnumbered and out-teched in btw) despite having literally hundreds of years of near constant warfare and dominance. France's warriors are no joke in a war they are prepared for.@@lqg4395
I'm not exactly sure that they would. I think the Cartel would rather help with whatever invading force had gotten through Mexico to get into our borders. They know the weaknesses, stress points, and routes that could easily help the invading forces push in if they got that far.
AS a very proud Canadian, i would gladly defend our neighbours, friends and greatest allies to our south. A bond maybe even stronger than our bond with the United Kingdom
Canadians, Americans, and Mexicans are like brothers in the same house. We may bicker and scuffle with each other, but heaven help the poor bastard that thinks they can mess with any of us.
Forget about the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Deer hunters in the North, Alligator and Python hunters in Florida, Feral Hog Hunters all over the country. 20 million Hunters. 200 thousand machine gun owners. 40 million Modern Sporting Rifles. (Assault weapons). 50 million Handguns and another 80 million Shotguns. Plus, an amount of stored Up Ammo that equals or Exceeds the National Debt. (At minimum, a couple of Trillion Rounds.) Plus millions of treasured Second World War bring backs, Springfields, Enfields, "throw e'm in the Cornfield". Garands, .30 Carbines.Mausers too. Cowboys with Colt Revolvers, ex GIs with Colt Automatics, Cops and Gangsters with Glocks. Also, just assume that everyone has an AK or AR. Then, we come to "off the books assets." Stuff nobody mentions. That's why we don't have to garrison troops for local security. We Are our own security. Think, like, invading an Afghanistan populated by a bunch of Really Well Armed Rich Kids. Tough Rich Kids. As for places like Florida and Texas? FORGETABOUTIT! Edit: corrected for misspelling.
Little fun fact about 29 palms if you don't already know but the base was once an Army installation till the Army basically said "this area is uninhabitable for our soldiers" which in turn led to the Marine Corps saying "hold my beer".
I was stationed at camp pendleton. At first I hated it, but then I did a 2 week field op at 29 palms (camp wilson). I literally kissed the ground of pendleton when I got back. Only when I went to The stumps did I realize how lucky I was to be at pendleton
The Appalachian mountain range would be hell for any invading force. In my state alone there’s over 200,000 hunters each year who can sit for hours in the worst conditions and can make great shots
Along with that we have rifle calibers that no bullet proof vest will come close to stopping. And because of the hunters and weapons is the main reason no other countries have tried it
The hillbilly ( I use that word in the good sense ) snipers would drive out any invaders . Tank crews and logistics drivers have to dismount sometime .
Knowing the terrain. Stalking invading forces. Using the land. Unconventional warfare at its finest. Entire units would disappear trying to penetrate those mountains.
If another comment helps, he didn't even mention the Pacific Range mountains along the West Coast (most of these type YT Channels are usually short on good info) Which cliff would you like to land on, Marine? Which narrow Pass through the Mountains would you like to use? Find a map.of the East Coast river systems. Pick a bottleneck, any bottleneck. And the U.S. Military is going to see you coming from hours or days away. Come through Canada and the British Crown will have your Camo-family on ships and planes in less than a day. (If the Canucks don't kill them all before you get there.) Come through Mexico and not only will you have 200+ million angry Mexicans to deal with, you'll be on open terrain. Do NOT insult Mexican Pride. When we say "America", understand that when crap goes wrong, it's "North America". We have our differences and arguments but all 3 countries have in common Pride and Short Tempers. The story is that in WW I, Germany offered Mexico an alliance against the U.S. Mexico called Washington. And when Russian nuclear bombers threatened the U.S., America called Ottawa. Just don't come hee.
NAVY vet here. I served on an aircraft carrier, but the truth is, our submarines are the backbone of our worldwide military dominance. They have kept the peace more times than you know by just being there.
Navy vet as well and don't be fooled by our naval superiority. The Russians and Chinese also have very capable amd advanced subs. We caught a Russian sub 50 miles off the coast of Georgia back in 2010 while I was on a cruiser and we were running routine exercises. It was purely accident we detected it.
Yes, I have read where one nuclear powered sub (Wolf Class?) could actually wipe out all of north Korea from far out at sea and be totally hidden from the Commies there and strike at a moments notice. "Fat Boy" better watch it. He has already made several bad moves with shooting missiles off toward Japan.
USN Sub Vet (12 years) When the opportunity allowed itself to let them know "WE" were in the house. You could almost hear their jaws drop, and imagine them having to change their shorts. Yes, that good!
Nobody likes it, or likes to talk about it, but yes the main reason we haven't had a nuclear Armageddon is due to those big black holes in the ocean prepared to rain hellfire on Russia, China or North Korea if they decide to get too frisky. I had a safe, quiet childhood in the 1970s because Mutually Assured Destruction kept the peace.
Only problem I see there is-1) their own government is def a weak point 2) the citizens have largely been disarmed by government regulation. Basically they've been nerfed. But I feel the people would stand for US. But people only make cannon fodder if they aren't armed with decent semi auto weapons lol
It was mentioned the amount of personal weapons owned by United States civilians. But another thing to consider, is the amount of these armed civilians that are former military and their military training.
@@scottrackley4457 My whole family has been hunting big game since the age of 10 ( kind of a right of passage) with 7 tags filled in my name alone, (elk and deer) with shots taken at anywhere from 100-450 yards. I can confidently say after hitting the dead center of a dime at 100 yards with a Remington 10-22 At the age of 13, I would not miss. I’m now 28 and have never stopped shooting. My toys just got bigger and badder and my family’s shooting skills sharper and faster. God bless America.
@@joshuaalexopoulos3889 Pawpaw and my Dad and uncles went every year to either Wyoming, Montana, Idaho for elk. I still have and use and am pretty good with a 300 winmag. Elk are big but usually far away.
You are correct. Another way to put it...."brains". Russia doesn't seem to have it. In my foggy memory I recall they were the officiating country for the Olympics years ago and there were story-after-story about how badly prepared they were to host the hundreds of Olympians from around the world. I can't recall all the stories but it made them look like total screw ups. I think I vaguely recall some of the athletes rooms weren't ready at all. I also recall them being laughed at and ridiculed by the world press for doing such a bad job in preparing for events they were aware of years in advance. On reflection it should have been a warning for the world how badly they were prepared for a war.
@@internalharm amazon uses logistics, they arent them. Ukraine and Russia is a great example, Russia has overwhelming equipment to ukraine but their troops running out of gas and other supplies renders them half as effective or less than they should be. Doesnt matter how well your troops are or arent trained if they dont have bullets....
In the war of attrition, Russia is king. In the war of logistics, the USA is king. I'd rather side with logistics than to keep throwing bodies into a meat grinder like we see in the Ukraine-Russia war.
A majority of Americans live by the term "Rather die on my feet than live on my knees". The ocean between us and the rest of the World has been one of our biggest allies. Like you said supply lines are key to sustainability. Our interstate highways are designed in a way to withstand an invasion as well. They would be shut down to civilian travel and utilized as troop, munitions, and even runway for fighter jets. Eisenhower saw how Hitler made the autobahn and improved its design ten fold. Great reaction.
I don't think that's the case for "the majority" of our citizens. But, it doesn't have to be. There are lots of us and amongst us we have lots and lots and lots of guns, ammo and gear. The rate of attrition for civilians fighting trained soldiers would be bad, but the civilians would win in the end. It would take half the world's militaries to invade and successfully occupy the USA.
@@gerryconstant4914 It's a hard comparison, the Autobahn is significantly smaller, but they both have similar standards. Most of the Interstate system is 11 inches of concrete (roughly 28" cm). It gets more difficult because the climate and geography of the Interstate system is significantly more variable, meaning that using one standard would actually be detrimental regionally. The Midwest for example maintains their Interstate system by building cheap and replacing frequently because the Frost and Salt will destroy anything so quickly and brutally that it's more practical and cost effective to use your last road as new aggregate.
To any Canadian reading this comment. I love you guys. You have been there with us protecting and helping us in times of disparity. We will have your back and you'll have ours. Thank you. Our Northern Brothers ! 🇺🇸❤️🇨🇦
Step dad works in Alaska. The town he is in doesn't have any roads going in or out. All supplies come by boat or plane. 99.99% of Alaska is absolute wilderness. Trying to move military equipment through there effectively would be impossible.
That’s funny my dad works in Alaska for the summer before it freezes up. And I can say that it’s true prices for almost everything in any place of Alaska is raised because it’s all taken by boat or plane ALL of it. My dad does construction/concrete, and it’s mostly for air force/army bases so they are well equipped and trained. I’ve seen it myself. Alaska itself would be far to treacherous, the mountains, rivers are unpassable, very few if any roads/highways, that would more then likely be taken out to delay enemy forces. The people in Alaska are mostly conservative they go there for the isolation etc, that being said they are a hardened population it’s not easy living there with the terrain, crime rate(cause if the isolation), winter and the 24/7 nights and extreme cold, and so. Also most would be willing to defend their frontier with there lives, at least most. They fly jets around there all day my dad did work on a air force base and told me about it. It’s a whole different world there, population density may be low, etc, but there’s a reason for that.
That's what the French thought when Germany went thru the Ardenne, and then thru thr Soviet Union in the winter. I will agree tho nobody can invade us thru Alaska. Isn't the largest AirForce base there or onr of the largest.
@@joshdh46 It depends on how far north you are. Places like Barrow essentially do experience about 2 months of darkness in the winter and 2 months of sunlight in the summer.
I never realized how uncommon it was in the world for a civilian to be familiar with so many firearms and as you say weapons systems from such a young age. The 1st time I realized was when I traveled abroad after high school and met some french and British military guys, Who were a little shocked to find out that I'm a competent marksman on on no less than 7 firearms Including How to clean and maintain. The part of the country I come from this is just common knowledge and a part of your upbringing. Going to the shooting range every Saturday was a family event where grandpa would put the young ones on his knee to shoot the 22 for the 1st time. Most of the young men in my family were gifted a 30 caliber hunting rifle on their 16th birthday, almost none of us actually hunt game, That's not what these rifles and shooting lessons were for. Gramps always used to tell me, Better to be a farmer with a gun, than a Warrior with a pitchfork.
I got my first gun when I was two (.22 Long rifle) and have been learning and practicing ever since. I’m currently a good shooter with all types of pistols, including revolvers, most types of shotguns, most types of hunting rifles, a couple sniper/high caliber, and most AR platforms. For anyone looking into guns I recommend having a narrow start with something manageable but if you enjoy it take your time to get fluent in at least one of each types of firearms I listed prior.
@@andrewjoliver82you can't remove risk by removing all the needles from the kingdom. I was trusted with a firearm to defend the family home starting at age 4~ no one in my family has ever been injured in a fire arm related accident.
😂 the whole Russia helping trump become president has been disproven for a while now. Wici leaks were about Hillary spying on trumps campaign and administration.😂😂😂
It was correct when the video stated that the biggest threat to any invading force (if they actually got to our shores) are the civilians. We have the largest unregistered military in the world.
I also feel like a lot of people forget about the our police force and their size as well as other agencies that carry guns such as FBI, CIA, Border patrol, IRS, U.S. Marshals and many more. They would have to fight a force that is bigger than most army's and with many of them having special units that can fight pretty well in urban environments such SWAT, yeah good luck trying to go through that.
A good point about the citizens, even though I’m technically counted as a civilian now, I was an Infantryman only a couple years ago. I have a basic setup, my DD MK18, USP, and some odds and ends, but a lot of people discount the force multiplier of many veterans being able to lead, train, and instruct the general population in firearms usage, marksmanship, small unit tactics, and basic soldiering skills. The standing military really is just the beginning of it all. Greetings from across the pond sir, I have a massive amount of respect for your country and it’s fighters, you Royal Marines are tough as nails. To our friends in the UK, and Canada, know that no matter what our politicians may say being the traitors that they are, we would always come to your aid in a time of war.
Since the 2A is a Right, I would love nothing more than free safety courses offered to anyone that wanted to learn how to better use a firearm. I always say just because you don't want to exercise that particular Right, you should at least know how to disarm a weapon and make it safe. That is something I wouldn't mind having tax dollars spent on. It would be great to even incentivise it like getting better loan rates, pell grants, general grants if you decided to take that course.
@@MrShwaggins They always present gun control in the name of safety. Like you said, if they actually cared about safety, there would be gun training and proper handling courses everywhere. This single item tells us it's never been about safety or saving lives, school children be damned!! It's only now and always been about control. There's plenty of money for your fine suggestion. Sadly They'll never do it. They can't control a people that are armed or like you mentioned, at least be able to shoot with some amount of proficiency. I forget who said this, but it is an incredible quote. "An unarmed people are not citizens, but subjects." Damn.
Just comparing the US Navy to all the others, is very telling. And talking about the river systems, there's an excellent video talking about how US geography is what made it a superpower. And if you somehow manage to physically invade the US land, you're facing an angry and very armed citizenry. We're like a giant family. We fight among ourselves, but invade us, and watch the population unite. (Think of what happened on 9/11)
Even Bloods and Crips would fight alongside each other, while your redneck cousin comes by in a dodge ram with a home made shotgun, blasting the head off of an enemy. A man in a tank he legally bought comes by and squishes a few enemy vehicles, before going a bit back due to the fact that no tank is immortal, and he has common sense. In a news helicopter, the weather man is shooting down with his own gun. Along comes the Lousiana and MIssissippi National Guard, obliterating the geniuses who decided to invade America through one of our most vital rivers. Somehow with pure luck of not being spotted, a battleship makes it to Memphis. What is that on the bridge? The MPD, the SWAT team, and the Tennessee national guard. They've got armored cars, tanks, and trucks, just rigs of every size. The point is you can't invade the US easily. The MIssissippi river has some cities full of gun owners along it's path. The coasts of Los Angeles or New York will be armed with the local gun owners and the military aid from the nearby counties. The coasts of Texas will literally need one Texan. The coasts of Florida and Georgia will have.. well.. yes. People literally own war weapons in the US. If you are secretly Putin trying to learn our secrets, it is no secret that any of this is true.
The problem I see for an enemy would be civilians. There are more than 2 guns per person in the USA. Even if the enemy could do damage, the old folks, kids over 10 and everyone in the middle would be shooting at them. Not a fun experience.
Love seeing all the unconditional support from our Canadian brothers. Also wanted to call out Germany tried to get Mexico to invade us in WW1 and Mexico told them to pound sand. I live in the SouthWest and the family and cultural ties across the border are extremely strong.
Fun fact admiral yamato Said in June 1942 "you cannot send a attack on the mainland united state cause there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass"
The US, Canada, and Mexico are certainly different countries. But at the end of the day, I firmly believe that if one of us were to be invaded in such a way, The other two would immediately jump to the aid of the country that is being invaded. Without hesitation. North America as a whole, while we have our differences politically, are absolute allies when it comes to this. They did not flinch or hesitate when we needed support following 9/11, THAT will never be forgotten. The UK, also, showed how strong and unwavering their friendship was and always will be to this country.
To be more accurate the number of firearms in America is close to 400 million and close 50 trillion rounds according to recent estimates... There is 335 million people in the United States and 130 million of them are hunters 22 million are ex military with close to 12 million still being fighting age and as far as the gun estimates those are just the ones that the government knows about and doesn't count hand made weapons or even the Binary explosives owned by the US citizens or hand made explosives so yes the citizens will be far worse to deal with
Maybe not. Very low tech people can manage to use high tech devices, so while the odds are high that you are correct, it's not guaranteed. Also, Ringo had some interesting creatures "driving". Consider that movie District 9; the Prawns could not maintain their tech at all.
As an American growing up in the Midwest and currently living in Florida, the difference in the environmental landscape will have a huge impact on the invading force. Also the amount of guns owned by civilians is highly underrated.
As an American, it isn't the military people need to fear on American soil... it's the citizens. A ground assault would result in a bloody battle. There's millions of us that spent our childhood practicing by playing battle using laser tag and learning to navigate the woods without getting caught. Toss in their fierce pride for their country, massive amounts of personal weaponry that is owned...it just wouldn't be wise.
I must say, as an American.. our greatest weapon is the American spirit! Even though we are always at odds with each other but when we stand together it’s not to messed with!
@@sunnydlight2375 ohh you’re 100% correct but that’s completely different from an invasion. That’s day to day issues, I can assure if anyone tries to overrun us those differences will go out the window
@@dominickelly5950 They would be, 9/11 showed what happens when we come together for a common enemy. I remember those days and the will to fight was very strong.
Ever seen a typical turkey hunter? Almost on par with some SF groups at knowing terrain sneaking and closing for the kill. Forget veterans armed hunters much less military would be able to repel a legitimate invader.
330 million patriots to guard our borders. Scripture states "keep your sword sharp" OK we still have a few of those around however the modern weapons are more effective. If one looses his life breaking into your house, his blood is on his own head ! 😮😊😅
As a American I can absolutely say that our civilian population definitely has an upper hand with land knowledge and firearms. The will to fight and survive is in our dna. People here forget that we become united very very quickly under adverse conditions. Thank you for always grinding and giving us great content! And thank you for your service and making this world a better place
Ehhhhh... I don't know about that, especially with a large portion of our population living in large cities. They have no idea how to even take care of themselves and large portions of that population would die off fairly quickly if everything was to shut down (food/supplies being shipped in).
A man recently said: "We have 150 thousand battle tanks just sitting in the desert (unused)" Imagine how many bases we have in USA. Was this desert Iraq? Was it Arizona? Was it Nevada? New Mexico? This is just 1 area. USA is not to be taken lightly and everyone is strapped. Besides of the liberals, cause they want slavery back. Send them to China, their dream will be complete. 'Murica, Harold, America - Kumar I am born in Ukraine but a full citizen of USA for more than 2 decades, and I always thought Ukraine was oppressed by its' own government, it was always hard to get firearms, and you can see huge effect of lack of firearms. Country was almost taken over in first week, but our Ukrainian military pushed them back. Human losses were massive. As any nation, you need firearms to defend your territory

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." - Abraham Lincoln
Some of those quotes like Franklin's "A republic, if you can keep it" have proven to be rather prophetic.
Its already totally lost, turns out the US didnt need a strong military or nukes to defend itself. It needed term limits, and it needed to enforce monopoly better. If any country wants to take over America you can buy the non government corporations on the inside and influence outward. This video is useless.
That statement " united we stand, divided we fall " makes a lot of sense, hence the reason many people in the US are trying to destroy us from the inside.
Sad many people are falling for the stuff thats being pushed.
We in America need to come together again!!
America is worth saving!!
And that's what is happening
You have to add or register but don't have to commit unless of a major war like Nam
I am a Canadian and I would fight for America’s defence. It is fair to say our countries have had each other’s backs for a long time. When the towers were hit Canada, UK, and France answered without a second thought. We would do it again if America was threatened.

Amen to that brother America loves our Canadian brothers and sisters
On Sept 11, 2001 - I will always be grateful to our friends, the Canadians.... UK & France for responding and helping, putting up many of our people stranded in Canada, patrolling our skies for our protection just after that horrible time!! Will never forget ... !!!!!!!!
What are you talking about there was never no Canadian UK or France planes in United States after 9:11 or Before it
@richardrivers6909 I flew for American Airlines at that time. American and United Airlines were the U.S. Airliners involved.
The Canadians took in several airliners that were grounded in Canada by the FAA after the attacks. The Canadians took care of the passengers & crews, inviting so many into their homes, taking some to hotels which also opened their doors to them. (There may have been other countries that did the same for the U.S. planes, however, I only heard about what the Canadians did for us.)
There were joint patrols over the U.S. & our coastal waters with fighter jets from those countries in conjunction with ours looking for possible further enemy attacks. We were part of the United Nations. We were being supported during a time of terrorist attack. I am not sure how many jets were involved or for how long but I think it was for a few days.
It happened on a Tuesday and the commercial flights were resumed again on the following Saturday. There were flight crew members that quit; many that were not able to make themselves physically get on any of the planes to resume their jobs for months & none were fired. I resumed flying on that Saturday (to get back in the saddle so to speak) but was on high alert and jumpy for about a year while on the job. It was terribly sad and exhausting. What a time in history.
YW. As a Brit, I was proud to stand besides our cousins across the pond.
The problem with being an impenetrable techno-fortress with weaker and less well equipped enemies... is that warfare becomes asymmetric. But, asymmetric warfare is, itself, symmetric! Whilst the US certainly has the advantage in the military asymmetry - it still has nuts that hang low and invite reciprocal asymmetry.
So, there's a problem with analysing threat situations positively, in terms of a 'stand-up' fight. Such thinking relies on the fight being conventional.
On 9/11, America was kicked in the nuts. But the next attack on Americas nut-sack could be considerably less recoverable. Such as cargo-delivered nukes delivered into major container ports. The US container ports are IMMENSE... VITAL... and almost impossible to properly protect. They also constitute a covert delivery mechanism handling HUGE global volume, and that provides credible deniability for the attacker.
If you're targeting the US nut-sack... container ports are exposed to coordinated attacks like no other.
I think that naively comparing military capabilities may well be utterly irrelevant and could lead to a false sense of security.
I love the Canadians in the comments getting patriotic for the US! That's awesome. We love you guys too
As American I like to say thank you Canada for hockey and for being a badass neighbor
We always make fun of one another but I love Canada. It's my second favorite country next to my mother land of Finland. I'd always have Canadas back in any time of battle.
We love Canadian people, definitely NOT their government.
As an American I would fight to the death for Canada without a second thought! Us Americans love the the canadians!
I love our neighbors to the north and south.
As an American Troop; I can personally say no one gets to Bully Canada except us. They are Family.
Lol. USA , Canada and Mexico. Now we're talking 💯👍👍👍
Yk the British founded Canada right, that means that the uk can bully Canada and the u.s for that matter
Canada = America Lite. Like lite beer lol 😆 have a good day everyone.
FACTS
This made me laugh out loud! 💯 family great sibling rivalry! ❤
I feel a great swell of pity for any fool who tries to invade the United States. As a Canadian I can proudly say that even if our Gov was to refuse to help. Canada's people would with out a doubt stand and fight with the USA. WE STAND ON GUARD FOR THEE !
In many ways, our countries are one in the same!
❤
Canada is our sibling and we love them.
We love you too, and would obviously defend you without question.
As a Canadian I would defiantly assist the U.S no questions asked because I know they would do the same for us.
Cameron, Friend - You can take your bet to the bank WE WOULD defend Canada!!! 🇺🇸 🇨🇦
No matter what the US will fight for our brothers and sisters the US isn't perfect but we help our own 🇺🇲🇨🇦🇬🇧
Thank you brother 🇺🇸 🇨🇦
I went to a Military college and some of my colleagues were in the Canadian army and were outstanding soldiers.
100% we would.
while canadians and americans make fun of each other from time to time, i think most of us know that no matter where this ship is headed, sink or swim we're in this together all of the way
We only make fun of each other because we're family and we love and respect each other. Y'all got our backs to the north and US desert dwellers down here on the coast we gotcha back from the south
It's just sibling rivalry but at the end of the day we're family and would be there for each other in a war or disaster
I was a US Army officer stationed in Canada as a liasion. Canadians had jokes but it's true our NYPD is bigger than Canada's Armed Forces.
@@raywalteroutdoors pretty sure NY has bigger GDP than the whole of canada, which would then make sense that civic services have a budget proportionate to their respective incomes
@Sebastian it's close Canada is at 1.988 trillion while New York state is 2.0T with the NYC metro area making up the majority of NY's GDP at 1.59T.
Canadian here, i would without a doubt throw down for my Southern Brothers and Sisters. I have always loved America 🇺🇸
We love you brother 🇺🇸❤🇨🇦
Thanks from a disable Vet in the USA
Without hesitation, I would come back to the military to help Canada if needed.
And we would be there for you as well thank you
Thank you brother
One aspect of the armed citizens they didn't mention is the 15 million veterans. I am 1 of those 15 million. Most of us are not only willing to fight but we still take our oath of service seriously. I live offgrid in the 6th largest county in the country, 75% of the people I know out there have at least 1 veteran in the home and 2 right off the top of my head are Vietnam snipers. Any invader would spill blood for every inch they took. I think the veterans and citizens would be a more aggressive threat than the military. All the anger and frustration we have towards each other and the government would be directed towards the invaders.
I live in the same county. It would not go very well for an invading force. I am a Veteran living offgrid also.
Not to mention getting that DD214 didn’t erase our knowledge of how to operate the armor, trucks artillery etc…. And most of us are pretty close to a National guard armory with all those toys
Absolutely. But our biggest threat comes from within. Our biggest threat is our own government and the unelected globalist elitists who control many of our politicians

Right on Marine, US vet here, and yeah, we are armed, willing and ready. Canada/US/Mexico is a solid brotherhood, I've done missions with both, and they are rock solid. Side note: much respect to the Canadians in WW2, they were absolute savages in warfare.
My whole adult life I've heard people say 100 bad things about the USA for every one positive thing. Just feels so good to hear and read people having our backs and saying positive stuff. Firm handshakes to all our brothers and sisters fighting the good fight :)

@Phantom knight I'm curious, if you don't consider the US to be the most successful country, which country is, in your opinion, and what metrics would you use to determine your choice? (Really a legit question not trying to be snarky)
As far as neighbors go, you would be hard pressed to find better neighbors than Canada. Canadians are independent minded, tough and friendly. We’re truly blessed to have Canada to the north of us.
Exactly. If you think for a SECOND, that any country is just gonna stroll through Canada, you're sorely mistaken. We in the States know how tough those Canuck SOB's are. They HAVE to be just to live in that Godforsaken place. There's literally NOBODY I'd rather have my back in a fight, than a Canadian.

How could they help they can barely own guns
@@davidmacko983 Regardless of whether or not they own guns, they still have a military and are friendly to us. Forces coming through Alaska would still have to go through Canada and that means going to war with the British Commonwealth as well.

@@lopidy65 I live in Appalachian area of North Carolina.
As an American, i appreciate the praise and respect to our military prowess but i recognize that a good chunk of that heritage comes from our British friends as Britain's military dominated the world for the 1700s- WW2
As a Canadian if any foreign troops start anything with North America. I'd be there in a heartbeat as millions more would as well. " Behind every blade of grass " love my American neighbors. God bless y'all
We got y’all too. I mean y’all sing our anthem louder than we do most times
You as well, bro
that's a love that goes both ways brother, if anyone EVER gave Canada or Mexico smoke, dear god would we insist that shit's personal. whatever invading force there is, would immediately face counter offensives on their own soil. hellfire would rain from the skies.
C'mon, bro!! You know we're (I'm American BTW) like brothers. If you fight, we fight! If you die, we die. We will fight to the death to defend you.
God bless our Northern cousin!!! We may not agree on everything, but we're still the best of friends. Lol
To me, this is the funniest part about imagining an invasion. Imagine your ship makes it across the ocean, survives the air raids and gets close enough for you to make land. You make your way up the beach, fighting every step of the way. Till you round a corner of a building or crest a hill, just to be greeted by Bob Jones with a sawn off shotgun in one hand and a beer in the other.
Edit: Been going through the comments and reading about how the Canadians would jump to defend the US. Thanks, Canadians. That actually warms my heart. Hope everyone who reads this has an amazing day :)
Haha imagine them rollin up in the hood in Detroit, Baltimore, or Chicago.
LMFAO, this cracks me up. Because it's 100% true. And there would be a Bob Jones around every corner, of every building, inside of every window, on top of every roof.
The Canadians had their guns taken along with Australia, and England and were next.
@James you realize they have a standing army navy and airforce right? You think backwoods rednecks are the main thing preventing invasions?
@Aethenthebored trudue took your guns.only for small game .ahahah mite as well own beebee guns.
"YOU CANNOT INVADE THE MAINLAND UNITED STATES. THERE WOULD BE A RIFLE BEHIND EACH BLADE OF GRASS." -Yamamoto, 1941 Japanese Admiral

If guns were people, the us population would be 730 million
Did he yell it?
@@jasonv.5938 😂😂💀
Unfortunately we are already being invaded through our southern border.
It's funny you mentioned the size of 29 Palms. I was stationed there for a little over a year. Your mind would be blown by the size of Camp Pendleton in CA.
God bless
Just so people from other countries understand: 25:25 isn't footage of a military armory, it's footage of an American store.
Yeah, some people might see that as sarcastic, but you literally see the price tags😂
And we have Many many stores
Even Cali has those stores lol. And a shit ton of them.
yeah honestly thats the real problem any country would face. if you manage to get past 2million troops you now have to deal with 150million gun owners.
@@lcd8180 many of those gun owners own multiple guns and would happily arm friends, family, and neighbors, so there's a good chance you would have to deal with a lot more a than that. Hell, my crazy uncle could probably arm 40+ people alone lmao
I am an American. If anyone was to invade Canada or Mexico I would go fight to help them defend their homeland in a second! Love them both.
Despite our immigration and border crisis it’s fair enough to say I’d do the same for either of our neighbors if an event like that ever occurred.
This!
@@bryanitza-chulopez1658 I really wish both Mexico and the US would get their act together and secure the border. Honestly, what would people think if the US just crossed the Rio Grande and claimed one mile in and back is the US until Mexico figures out what they are going to do.
Me too they are people we’ve worked with for generations
I love the idea of a North American world. At that point we'd have tacos, burgers, and putine united. It used to be that way when I could get over borders with my driver's license. I blame Canada honestly. ;)
Retired Air Force here. 2 points. If Mexico or Canada were ever in danger of being invaded in both the spirit of neighbors, allies, and friendship, we would bring the full weight of the US military for the aid of their security with zero doubt. The second point is if an invading military really made it to mainland, behind every blade of grass would be an American with a gun and a renewed sense of patriotism for their lands defense. Love your videos, you do your legacy proud sir.
Unfortunately our enemies are already invading our country, they're coming in disguised as illegals that Biden is allowing to cross our borders daily and they're being distributed across the states so be ready
"Renewed sense of patriotism" haha I'm stealing that, and I agree with both points.
Well*
It would only make sense to defend in Canada or Mexico instead of in the US.
Amen brother!
I'm an American who grew up close to the Canadian border and knew quite a few Canadians. I feel like Canada would not hesitate to aid the US militarily in the event of an invasion, especially if it was in Alaska as that would be an immediate and direct threat to them as well. I think Mexico would help too, but with perhaps a bit more hesitation unless they were directly drawn into it.
I don't doubt Mexico would help, it's the US' biggest trade partner, I believe they surpassed China.
As an American civilian in the midwest, I can confirm that we're all armed to the teeth. Getting past our military would just be the first step of an impossible invasion. Step 2 would be dealing with a couple hundred million pissed off civilians such as myself 😁
I too can confirm that many midwesterners (outside of the largest cities anyway) are very well armed. I know plenty who aren't, but a lot of people I know have at least one firearm stowed away for home defense, just for safe keeping.
Not to mention we know our lands better than our own government lol
Red Dawn 😁
Hell I'm not even Midwestern (Oregon), and I have 8 guns in my house and ammunition for 6 of them. God bless the 2nd Amendment and our continued fight for gun rights.
@@Tyler_W those not armed…can quickly get arms from neighbors who have more guns then family members to fire them.
Years ago I was in Ohio and a vet pointed out their national guard was larger than the armed forces of Canada. He was correct.
I'm from Ohio and we've got a big military presence here. It's even bigger up north but here in the capital city of Columbus it's mostly the Rickenbacker Airport that gets all the attention since it's a commercial airport. The amount of military in every state let alone across the world is mind blowing when you did into it all.
@@justinwhite866 O-H!
@@barbiincognito13 I-O!!!
If Russia were Canada's southern neighbor instead of the US it wouldn't be like that
@@grisall what? Well no duh Ohio wouldn't exist let alone have a national guard if Russia were to replace us. That'll never happen though lol.
I live in Alaska. There are very few roads here due to the mountains. We could destroy a few bridges and completely stop any movement then while stopped decimate them from mountain passes. So many active duty and retired military here we make up a huge part of the population. As for the rest of the country, millions of hunters that know the land and can shoot. This is one of the reasons for our second amendment. Love your channel by the way
AMEN!!!!!
I was just thinking this. Some of our hardiest citizens live in the bush in Alaska. These men and women know the land and are proficient hunters and foragers. Any adversary that chooses to attack through Alaska, would have to face these men and women. This not including our Armed Forces and Canadian neighbors in that area 😅.
@@avice10535 the only way to get through east to west is a road called the Glenn highway. Then the tok road on to Canada lots of bridges and passes so many chock points. Those of us that hunt moose and bear can shoot a pie pan out to 300 plus’s yards. Some I know out to a thousand. Anyone trying to get through would be in real trouble. If held up long they would have to face the weather. I live here and know how to protect myself and I don’t want to get trapped in it.
Yep. I don't know where in Ak you are but the guys I've talked to about it all said the same thing. Blow out the bridges and pick them off there. I think even in winter most of us would be fine if we were cut off from town for a while and if we weren't we'd have neighbors that would help us out. I love Alaska- best state in the country.
@@1coketogo554 And even if by some fluke they managed to get through, we've got a small amount of troops but our doctrine in that scenario is to split into 3 man reconnaissance teams and relive 'WOLVERINES'! One thing not mentioned it that a sizeable proportion of Canadians are also related to Americans, as if someone's just gonna sit by and watch their relatives get F'd over! Washington, Minnesota, Michigan, Texas, Vermont, Georgia, Florida, Virginia, and probably a few others I lost off the top of my head are going to have my life standing between them and any jerk off that wants to try!
I live in Alaska, we have multiple military bases and every single person I know has at least 6 different weapons, from hunting rifles to Ak’s and in most cases thousands of rounds.
From a US Marine, thank you guys for having our backs. UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, all and further. We've got you just the same. You're respected and appreciated. And thank you, Sir for the 29 Palms shout out. Get some.
F the 29 sticks, you need to figure out how to get yourself to Pendleton
Truth. From the UK. What's the difference between us? Nothing.
The only difference brother, is the hats. 😉 lol
Well I have to say that...AS THE RESIDENT RESEARCH NERD CIVILIAN...
It really all boils down to sociology and psychology so.. television is not war. My best friend is former USMC 29 palms 0331 twice deployed so it's just like the war in the Ukraine. As an American - do I think it's the most important thing ever? Not necessarily. Morally it's fucked up but that's war period. But I can also sit here and say that as an American, I honestly didn't think about the simple geographic location (just location the other stuff I obviously thought about) because I'm a contractor for the doe and think about the advanced EMR type defenses. That's called being human! (Or autistic 😁)I will be wrong again. My only problem is when people don't admit it.
And that basic psychology/sociology isn't taught to kids -- (If it was, well, ya don't gotta say it I get the catch 22 of who's teaching them) would be the second problem.
Thanks for sticking decent information out there as some people just. Wanna trek through Alaska and haven't left a city in their lives.
@@AndrewJones-bj5hx and accents* 😆
As an American, if a foreign power did try to invade by way of Mexico or Canada then our culture is such that Canada, Mexico, and the USA would definitely see each other as One country and tell the invaders "OH HELL NO."
Yeah, the USA 🇺🇸.. if anyone attacks us on our own soil, right now, the USA would turn that entire country into a sheet of glass without spilling our coffee, all while we never eveb left our desk.. lol 😆 🤣.. hopefully they are not that stupid, and especially if you combine the USA with Canada, Mexico, UK, and many more, that i just didn't name.. then its not the smartest thing to do is attack north America in general.. especially the USA itself.. but just even attacking the north American continent would be the dumbest thing another country could possibly do.. attack Canada and USA if ya want too.. but.. they better be prepared to get their own country instantly frozen like Elsa.. 😆 🤣..
It’s funny because half of our politics are related to how much we don’t like and are different from each other.
And also all the bang bangs and most of us have tons of ammo to last. And some of us load our ammo.
Already happening. Sleeper cells. Look at everything burning. If this keeps up we are fucked long before an official declaration of war is made…
@donjuan7597 exactly, although Argentinians may be hesitant to fight alongside brits. but people tend to really overlook Latin Americas relations with the US military. Brazil helped a sizable amount in wwii and Latin America was the most receptive by far of the great white fleet we put on tour to flex our navy in the early 20th century. All love for my American brothers and sisters throughout the continents. My dream is for one day the Americas to be as developed and stable as Europe to the point where the US can leave NATO and form an alliance among the Americas, that way we can leave Eurasia alone and maintain our old isolationist ways without much worry. Nobody would attack a structurally sound, unified (in terms of alliances not sovereignty) America.
as a US citizen i keep forgetting how absolutely massive Alaska is
it is my dream to go live in alaska! i also live in the USA. i just found out a couple days ago the size of it!
Yes if you overlayed AK on the lower 48 it spans from Georgia to San Francisco
Most of it ... uninhabited.
yeah and the second largest and arguably greatest state (texas) doesn't come close in landmass
ive lived in alaska the vast majority of my life. its gorgeous and really is a massive state.
Prior marine here, love your content. Also, any invading army would be hard pressed to even deal with ornery armed citizens.
I'm french canadian and even if american politics sometimes seem alien to some of us, they're still our brothers. Our military is not big by any means but judging by our effort in the second world war, we can muster it up pretty quickly if needed. So I concur, going through us would not be easy in any way (and the weather is crazy cold, Siberia like, in winter) and we would send backup if needed for sure. Hell, they're helping us with the forest fires right now and we send snow plows to new york every other year!
If they tried to go through you, No doubt in mind all of us would come rushing to help you too. I'm from Texas, I can't deal with the cold, so if worst comes to worst, and something like that does happen one day. Pack an extra blanket for me, because I'll be right there ducking behind rocks with you.
well you're descendants of the French......so....
The sentiment is the same from down here as well. I don't understand much of what's going on up there, but at the end of the day, we've got each others' backs. Cheers!
@@jeremy4046What exactly does this mean?
I wouldn't want to do something so stupid as angering Canada to the point that they are going to fight. But, if a country were stupid enough to invade Canada, I have no doubt that the US population would rally around Canada.
I also pity any country stupid enough to invade Mexico. The cartels are extremely heavily armed and would be extremely unlikely to just allow invaders in.
Our biggest threat has and will continue to come from within.
Never more so than right now! Biden and the Dems are basically just Chinese civilians that just happen to be in charge of our government 🤬
Say that again for the people in the back
Exactly! And with the southern border being wide open and experts saying in the past 2 yrs up to 100 million including those from countries like China Russia and the Middle East were set to be overthrown from within.
100% we are rotting from within due to these leftist scumbags
Regarding North American geography; around 2010 the head of the Canadian Navy said, “if anyone tries to invade Canada from the north our first job will be to rescue them.”😊
Lmmfao!!!!!

Lol let them get lost n freeze
Yeah, it would be like the US invading Russia via Siberia.
Lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not bringing race into it(not really), I’ll say that as a brown skinned American veteran, we have always stood up to defend her and will always. This video affirmed what most people don’t mind to realize. Thank you for sharing it. All Americans a very fortunate but we need to do more internally for each other. Canada, we love you guys and that weirdly good fry thing you got going on. I also don’t think this video spent any time on our air power, as we have some of the most badass pilots up there, they are without doubt unmatched. -Appalachian born Texan…they should’ve even never set their boots on the ground.
I never was able to serve due to a preexisting condition, BUT one of the men I have the most respect for is a black man named Cleve who retired in the early 2000’s as a Colonel in the army. Damn good man. I think he would agree with you.
As an American veteran myself, the comments here amaze me. The shear love everyone shows for our friends and neighbors is astounding. The pride I feel for my country is immense and it literally brings tears to my eyes knowing I am not alone. The US military might is unmatched, however, it is our people and relations with our allies that truly make us great. This was an amazing video. The respect you have shown towards us runs both ways brother. Having the opportunity to train with the British military myself, I deeply respect you guys as well.
Nobody can invade the US even our children have automatic weapons
Well said sir.
Our country has been seized by corrupt politicians, is being led by the most corrupt of them, a guy that is politically assassinating his political opponent with false indictments and a weaponized justice system, has the voting system openly rigged, kids are being aborted in record numbers, more are being surgically mutilated and indoctrinated by leftist/progressive nut jobs, our education system has been taken over by the same insane progressives.......and you feel PRIDE?!?!?! You should be ashamed of yourself and it's the same shame all of us real patriots feel these days.

I loved how you brought up the diverse landscape we have here in the United States. I’m a Utah native and I don’t think foreign troops would do well in my state. In the west we have salt flats and the great salt lake. In the north we have heavy snow, canyons, and valleys. In the east we have more snow and the Rocky Mountains and Uintas. They’re so tall, deep and complicated that you have to be born here and/or raised around them to traverse them. (I’ve always said if there was an apocalypse I’d go up there). In the south we have deserts and red rocks/canyons. That’s all in ONE state! Plus, a lot of people here are locked and loaded! 😂
Don't forget that we have a copious amount of tornadoes. Literally like most of middle America is nicknamed Tornado Alley.
They would have to get through the cascade mountains first. And seeing as there ate only a few passes they would be bottleneck. I'm pretty sure Russia doesn't want a repeat of Kiev.
Im canadian and i know if need it would be the largest wave of Canadians heading south since 1812, and same with the Mexicans. They were some of the first people on the ground in Louisiana for hurricane Katrina they are close their helpful and gracious They’re not expeditionary but their defensive and they’ll help out in North America no questions about it, our tri lateral meetings arent called the three amigos for nothing
And they wouldn't even get TO america because as soon as we heard of landings in either country (especially you guys my Canadian brother), they'd be meeting American forces right alongside y'all. MEX-USA-CA
We Americans would be rushing up to help you guys in Canada the same way if anyone either invaded you or tried using you as a jump point as well and I know both countries would happily accept the help from each other. Same with Mexico. We disagree on certain things, run our countries differently, but we are VERY tight when it comes down to defending each other its been that way for a long time.
NORAD forever. If anyone ever attacked any of us they'd be in for a real surprise. Making jokes and jabs is one thing but when shit hits the fan, you're basically fighting one unified continent.
Hello next door neighbor. Another thing that any enemy should never underestimate about the United States of America is despite our politicians always trying to get our guns away from us, we will die before we will give them up.. to think about America having something like three hundred and fifty-six million Americans & the average household has somewhere around three or four guns but not every household has a gun.. most of the gun owners are in the South and Southeast and I'm in the Northern areas like The Dakotas Wyoming Montana etc etc and those are the legal gun owners for the most part where people have 10 or more guns per household because they hunt and they go to the shooting range... The American government and the socialists here just don't get it because the Democrats are always talking about wanting to take our guns away.. they shouldn't worry about us because we're just like backed up military really.. if people don't know much about the United States one of the biggest mistakes they ever make would be to invade the southeastern United States from Virginia all the way down to Florida..

Another Texan here. There was a post I saw somewhere that the number of registered hunters in Texas would make us like the 5 th largest army in the world. The old joke of an officer knocks on a Texans door and asks , you have any guns in there? Answers, why, what do you need?
Well come down here to the southern border of the U.S.. 250,000+ are invading every month from over 150 nations, and those are just the ones that escape apprehension.
I just want to thank you for your posts, very informative! I'm in central Kansas, lots of vets and hunters, have a Vietnam vet sniper a block away. Most Americans are prepared to defend home, family and country! It's also a great comfort having our brothers and sisters in Canada, we love them as well as all our allies across the globe! Mexico, U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Israel, Germany, Japan, France and the rest! God Bless you and yours , keep up the great work!
It warms my heart to see the American/Canadian peoples alliance is as strong as ever.
Hopefully most canadians will wake up to the fact that the USA is the biggest group of terrorists in the world and stop supporting them. They are just saying nice things because they are scared the USA will massacre us like they have the rest of the world. Luckily we aren't communists. But whos to talk the Chinese have Biden and Trudeau in their back pockets.
If someone legit attacked Canada, they'd instantly be nuked by the US lmao
Canadians consistently give us Hockey players, alcohol, and maple syrup
DONT FUCK WITH THE SYRUP SUPPLY CHAIN
Canada is the USA's hat. it would be like if some bully came and knocked our hat off
Yea, nobody messes with America's hat.
Seriously, as a matter of self interest, if someone were to attack Canada, or Mexico for that matter, it would be a major threat to the US. Sure we would defend Canada out of friendship, and sure we would defend Canada out of treaty obligations, but we would also defend them as a matter of our own national survival.
One thing they didn't mention directly is the sheer number of US military veterans in the civilian populace that would either be recalled to duty or be active in civilian defense.
Yup, by their freewill too. Thanks to all the troops.
It could even be a "Wolverines" type situation where there's small groups fighting back. Militias need to make a comeback
That’s me. Start training the civilian populous in the most basic shoot move and communicate.
The amount of people that practice marksmanship and those that hunt is insane in the US. Even with high casualties just the hunters alone could put major strain on supply lines if an enemy can even set foot on land.
@@Ndihrkop No, they really don't.
The only concern that America has to worry about is itself.
Ya we're currently being destroyed from the inside, sold out.
The destruction of American will come from within. Guaranteed. It's revolting but true. Everyday words like "honor," "patriotism," and "values" are looked upon by more and more of the masses with disdain. Unbelievable but true. We'll eat our own before an enemy from without ever rises to the level of an existential threat.
So true
YUP. That subject is being glossed over though.
Yes having a "president", his cabinet and several members of Congress that are compromised by China, Russia and God only knows who else is not exactly comforting!

If memory serves, the Japanese considered an invasion of the US lower 48 states. One of the major deterrents to was the guarantee of having to fight a protracted guerrilla war in Oregon and Washington State, against experienced woodsmen who often were crack shots. We’re talking about dudes who would go out to literally shoot dinner with a single round and had been doing that on a daily basis virtually from childhood. They realized that they simply didn’t have the manpower…
Idk about us Northwest states being "crackshots" with guns, but I can attest to the woodsmen part of that
Not all but anyone in the more rural areas in the pacific northwest are outdoorsman. By that I mean we fish, hunt and shoot for recreation. Anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors also has in depth knowledge of the terrain around us. Vantage points, trails and certain resources are close by but not the easiest to get to. I've lived in Oregon and Washington my whole life and know the forest areas from Salem to Tacoma quite well...
@@PBSpiralGamer In my PNW town in the 90's it wasn't uncommon to see multiple people walking through the store with a bolt action slung on their back or with a buck on their hood.
But in 1990 they stopped teaching kids how to use rifles in schools, so the remainder got to experience that through boyscouts which dissolved soon after. I grew up around hunters, my dad could drop a deer in one shot, sleeve it and quarter it where it fell. The vietnam vets didn't play around either.
This area was rugged as all getout back then, you HAD to be a crackshot if you're working as a lumberjack in the cascade mountains. They're still out there, you know, they're just alot quieter than city folk.
Look up Fu-Go Balloon Bomb, they tried but failed miserably.
@@PBSpiralGamer The “woodsmen” part was probably the scarier part. These guys were (still are) potentially the foundation of a frightfully effective guerrilla force even if most weren’t even close to being Nicholas Irving or Chris Kyle. If anything, it’d be worse for an invader because now there’s literally thousands of guys out there who have been trained to shoot in the military and have real-world experience fighting exactly this kind of war.

From what I've heard from HLC, all warfare comes down to how many bullets how many beans and how much gasoline(you get the idea, not trying to hate or argue, just am honestly curious if it's true though)

oh it's definitely not mutual. Canadians are friends, but south of the border, while the people are good at heart, they are way too compromised and controlled by the Cartels. Mexico is considered by many around the world as THE most dangerous place to live or visit right now.

Mexicans are genuine people. Would you like the whole of the US to be judged off of KKK, Bloods, Crips, Seraños, School shooters? You’ve probably never set foot in Mexico yet spew misinformation that you hear from brain dead pundits.
As soon as the cartels south of the border found out their customer base was in trouble, they’d stop the invasion themselves.
This quote wins the forum
I'd make a deal with the cartels to get as many invaders addicted to their product as possible. Turn the invading army into a one big group of junkies.
As someone from someone from Texas. I’d say that our relationship with Mexico is tenuous but friendly. I guarantee you that if something were to happen on a global invasion scale that we would be backing each other up. We may be rough neighbors, but we’re not going to let someone else invade each other at this point too many people and families between our nations.

13:42 there was a loud bang outside the other day here in Idaho. Six neighbors and myself all walked outside armed at about the same time. We looked around for a few minutes till we found out what had made the sound. We were all in our pajamas or shorts and it was about -7°F. So ya I don’t know how easy it would be to get past the civilians.
ah....America, the land of the free and the home of the brave.
That’s great. And it’s interesting, I’m from NYC born and raised, and I now live in Georgia.
I will tell you for a fact that both places would be near impenetrable, here’s why:
In NYC between street gangs, and all types of organized crime, and the police force alone, the unarmed citizens of the city wouldnt need to act. In a time of invasion, the criminals would need to defend their turf the same way the police would need to defend its citizens. NYC has so many housing projects that are laid out in a way where you have 5-6 story buildings in 10-12 building clusters, these are usually high crime areas which means street gangs tend to occupy them. These criminals have MORE THAN a substantial amount of firearms at all times. These housing projects would end up being like giant maze like fortresses. And let’s not take away from the VERY alive russian and Italian mobs. Who no matter what home land they are from would very much protect their empire.
Couple that with a very military like police force and the national guard and NYC is as good as it can be from invasion.
Then you have a state like Georgia which I’m sure is not very different than your own in terms of gun rights and laws. I personally know plenty of people here with small arsenals in their home legally. They start teaching their children proper use and respect of weapons as small as 7-8 and even younger probably. So in these types of states with the crime and the police, you have a civilian militia at the ready. It would be a situation where I don’t know if the army being there would be a help
Or not aside of medical aid because they would naturally restrict the civilians actions lol.
Eyy also idaho, and yeah that's how it goes. one of the few places that -7 can be considered bikini weather.

What was the the source of the loud bang sound that woke you all up?
It would go the same way for all three of us. If any of us were invaded. We would all fight for each other. Nobody's invading Mexico or Canada!
There is already an invasion of Mexico and US
i wish i were true, but the cartels kinda run Mexico, and they're in cahoots with a certain Fentanyl supplier....who are already there....same can be said about canada, if you look at the port and airport in Canada vancouver and has it's own police station there...the invasion hss already occurred ...even Texas has sold out areas to some former CCP General like 140,000 acres in texas...wonder what's going on there.

Little fun fact about 29 palms if you don't already know but the base was once an Army installation till the Army basically said "this area is uninhabitable for our soldiers" which in turn led to the Marine Corps saying "hold my beer".

Marines are an entirely different breed, I am forever terrified of my marine mother
right and they are an amphibian branch of the military😂😂😂
The Appalachian mountain range would be hell for any invading force. In my state alone there’s over 200,000 hunters each year who can sit for hours in the worst conditions and can make great shots
Along with that we have rifle calibers that no bullet proof vest will come close to stopping. And because of the hunters and weapons is the main reason no other countries have tried it
And we would definitely block any road over them. Get them in the back country and they are done.

We caught a Russian sub 50 miles off the coast of Georgia back in 2010 while I was on a cruiser and we were running routine exercises. It was purely accident we detected it.
Yes, I have read where one nuclear powered sub (Wolf Class?) could actually wipe out all of north Korea from far out at sea and be totally hidden from the Commies there and strike at a moments notice. "Fat Boy" better watch it. He has already made several bad moves with shooting missiles off toward Japan.

You are correct. Another way to put it...."brains". Russia doesn't seem to have it.
In my foggy memory I recall they were the officiating country for the Olympics years ago and there were story-after-story about how badly prepared they were to host the hundreds of Olympians from around the world.
I can't recall all the stories but it made them look like total screw ups. I think I vaguely recall some of the athletes rooms weren't ready at all. I also recall them being laughed at and ridiculed by the world press for doing such a bad job in preparing for events they were aware of years in advance.
On reflection it should have been a warning for the world how badly they were prepared for a war.
So amazon can win a war?
@@internalharm amazon uses logistics, they arent them. Ukraine and Russia is a great example, Russia has overwhelming equipment to ukraine but their troops running out of gas and other supplies renders them half as effective or less than they should be.

If my troops blow up your logistics, technically, my troops won the war.

In the war of logistics, the USA is king. I'd rather side with logistics than to keep throwing bodies into a meat grinder like we see in the Ukraine-Russia war.
Hey you should check out this video titled, "How geography made the US ridiculously over powered." I think you'll find it very informative.
A majority of Americans live by the term "Rather die on my feet than live on my knees". The ocean between us and the rest of the World has been one of our biggest allies. Like you said supply lines are key to sustainability. Our interstate highways are designed in a way to withstand an invasion as well. They would be shut down to civilian travel and utilized as troop, munitions, and even runway for fighter jets. Eisenhower saw how Hitler made the autobahn and improved its design ten fold. Great reaction.
Just think how good the Interstate System would be if it was as think as the Autobahn which is something like 30" of concrete.
You mean "shut down to civilian traffic". Your version is waaaay too smelly!
Sadly half of American's want fascists running things. Look at FL and TX and a bunch of Republicans. Jan 6. Trying to overturn the election. etc..
I don't think that's the case for "the majority" of our citizens. But, it doesn't have to be. There are lots of us and amongst us we have lots and lots and lots of guns, ammo and gear.
The rate of attrition for civilians fighting trained soldiers would be bad, but the civilians would win in the end. It would take half the world's militaries to invade and successfully occupy the USA.
@@gerryconstant4914 It's a hard comparison, the Autobahn is significantly smaller, but they both have similar standards. Most of the Interstate system is 11 inches of concrete (roughly 28" cm). It gets more difficult because the climate and geography of the Interstate system is significantly more variable, meaning that using one standard would actually be detrimental regionally. The Midwest for example maintains their Interstate system by building cheap and replacing frequently because the Frost and Salt will destroy anything so quickly and brutally that it's more practical and cost effective to use your last road as new aggregate.

Step dad works in Alaska. The town he is in doesn't have any roads going in or out. All supplies come by boat or plane. 99.99% of Alaska is absolute wilderness. Trying to move military equipment through there effectively would be impossible.
That’s funny my dad works in Alaska for the summer before it freezes up. And I can say that it’s true prices for almost everything in any place of Alaska is raised because it’s all taken by boat or plane ALL of it. My dad does construction/concrete, and it’s mostly for air force/army bases so they are well equipped and trained. I’ve seen it myself. Alaska itself would be far to treacherous, the mountains, rivers are unpassable, very few if any roads/highways, that would more then likely be taken out to delay enemy forces. The people in Alaska are mostly conservative they go there for the isolation etc, that being said they are a hardened population it’s not easy living there with the terrain, crime rate(cause if the isolation), winter and the 24/7 nights and extreme cold, and so. Also most would be willing to defend their frontier with there lives,
at least most. They fly jets around there all day my dad did work on a air force base and told me about it. It’s a whole different world there, population density may be low, etc, but there’s a reason for that.
That's what the French thought when Germany went thru the Ardenne, and then thru thr Soviet Union in the winter. I will agree tho nobody can invade us thru Alaska. Isn't the largest AirForce base there or onr of the largest.
Not only that, if we assume Russia and not China, majority of their minuscule navy isn’t even in the Pacific, it’s in the Baltics.

I never realized how uncommon it was in the world for a civilian to be familiar with so many firearms and as you say weapons systems from such a young age. The 1st time I realized was when I traveled abroad after high school and met some french and British military guys, Who were a little shocked to find out that I'm a competent marksman on on no less than 7 firearms Including How to clean and maintain. The part of the country I come from this is just common knowledge and a part of your upbringing. Going to the shooting range every Saturday was a family event where grandpa would put the young ones on his knee to shoot the 22 for the 1st time. Most of the young men in my family were gifted a 30 caliber hunting rifle on their 16th birthday, almost none of us actually hunt game, That's not what these rifles and shooting lessons were for. Gramps always used to tell me, Better to be a farmer with a gun, than a Warrior with a pitchfork.
Thats the american version of the chinese saying, Better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.
I got my first gun when I was two (.22 Long rifle) and have been learning and practicing ever since. I’m currently a good shooter with all types of pistols, including revolvers, most types of shotguns, most types of hunting rifles, a couple sniper/high caliber, and most AR platforms. For anyone looking into guns I recommend having a narrow start with something manageable but if you enjoy it take your time to get fluent in at least one of each types of firearms I listed prior.

@@andrewjoliver82you can't remove risk by removing all the needles from the kingdom.
I was trusted with a firearm to defend the family home starting at age 4~ no one in my family has ever been injured in a fire arm related accident.
😂 the whole Russia helping trump become president has been disproven for a while now. Wici leaks were about Hillary spying on trumps campaign and administration.😂😂😂
It was correct when the video stated that the biggest threat to any invading force (if they actually got to our shores) are the civilians. We have the largest unregistered military in the world.
American civilians own about 40% of the world's guns.
@@randlebrowne2048 that's just 40% that they know of.... Lol
I also feel like a lot of people forget about the our police force and their size as well as other agencies that carry guns such as FBI, CIA, Border patrol, IRS, U.S. Marshals and many more. They would have to fight a force that is bigger than most army's and with many of them having special units that can fight pretty well in urban environments such SWAT, yeah good luck trying to go through that.
@@cesarsalazar8618 well at least you didn't say ATF those guys can't fight to save their lives always end up calling the FBI.
@@christophermarkee5445 going off of what happened in Texas, i would venture to say a good number of the police force is just like the ATF.
A good point about the citizens, even though I’m technically counted as a civilian now, I was an Infantryman only a couple years ago. I have a basic setup, my DD MK18, USP, and some odds and ends, but a lot of people discount the force multiplier of many veterans being able to lead, train, and instruct the general population in firearms usage, marksmanship, small unit tactics, and basic soldiering skills. The standing military really is just the beginning of it all.
Greetings from across the pond sir, I have a massive amount of respect for your country and it’s fighters, you Royal Marines are tough as nails. To our friends in the UK, and Canada, know that no matter what our politicians may say being the traitors that they are, we would always come to your aid in a time of war.
Never thought about it like that! "Force multiplier of many Veterans". Damn. So freaking true!
100% ... two to three infantry veterans and nine civilians... with a couple of hunters. Viable squad!
Since the 2A is a Right, I would love nothing more than free safety courses offered to anyone that wanted to learn how to better use a firearm. I always say just because you don't want to exercise that particular Right, you should at least know how to disarm a weapon and make it safe. That is something I wouldn't mind having tax dollars spent on. It would be great to even incentivise it like getting better loan rates, pell grants, general grants if you decided to take that course.
@@MrShwaggins They always present gun control in the name of safety. Like you said, if they actually cared about safety, there would be gun training and proper handling courses everywhere. This single item tells us it's never been about safety or saving lives, school children be damned!! It's only now and always been about control. There's plenty of money for your fine suggestion. Sadly They'll never do it. They can't control a people that are armed or like you mentioned, at least be able to shoot with some amount of proficiency. I forget who said this, but it is an incredible quote. "An unarmed people are not citizens, but subjects." Damn.
Just comparing the US Navy to all the others, is very telling. And talking about the river systems, there's an excellent video talking about how US geography is what made it a superpower. And if you somehow manage to physically invade the US land, you're facing an angry and very armed citizenry. We're like a giant family. We fight among ourselves, but invade us, and watch the population unite. (Think of what happened on 9/11)
Yea bush bombed us and pointed the finger at bin Laden not gunna lie though we came together until Obama lol 😊
We argue and sometime fight with each other, but when it goes down, Circle up, horn out and God help the attackers. We will stamped!
Even Bloods and Crips would fight alongside each other, while your redneck cousin comes by in a dodge ram with a home made shotgun, blasting the head off of an enemy. A man in a tank he legally bought comes by and squishes a few enemy vehicles, before going a bit back due to the fact that no tank is immortal, and he has common sense. In a news helicopter, the weather man is shooting down with his own gun. Along comes the Lousiana and MIssissippi National Guard, obliterating the geniuses who decided to invade America through one of our most vital rivers. Somehow with pure luck of not being spotted, a battleship makes it to Memphis. What is that on the bridge? The MPD, the SWAT team, and the Tennessee national guard. They've got armored cars, tanks, and trucks, just rigs of every size. The point is you can't invade the US easily. The MIssissippi river has some cities full of gun owners along it's path. The coasts of Los Angeles or New York will be armed with the local gun owners and the military aid from the nearby counties. The coasts of Texas will literally need one Texan. The coasts of Florida and Georgia will have.. well.. yes. People literally own war weapons in the US. If you are secretly Putin trying to learn our secrets, it is no secret that any of this is true.
I would love to see that! Agreed
The problem I see for an enemy would be civilians. There are more than 2 guns per person in the USA. Even if the enemy could do damage, the old folks, kids over 10 and everyone in the middle would be shooting at them. Not a fun experience.
Love seeing all the unconditional support from our Canadian brothers. Also wanted to call out Germany tried to get Mexico to invade us in WW1 and Mexico told them to pound sand.
I live in the SouthWest and the family and cultural ties across the border are extremely strong.
It was WW2. In exchange for support in taking Texas Arizona and New Mexico.
Both. UK stopped it from happening in ww1
I find ww1 hard to believe. I always thought and still do that it was a fake msg by the uk.
Actually that’s not what happened
@@seanbrunty7225 it was not at all ww2. it was the Zimmerman Telegram and it was sent in 1917.
Fun fact admiral yamato Said in June 1942 "you cannot send a attack on the mainland united state cause there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass"
Yep! If not a soldier, even a grandma with a shotty waiting for ya!
@Not PC fun fact rather he said the quote or not. what the quote says is 100% true and that's
all that really matters
@Not PC you're a npc
The number of hunters in Texas would be the largest standing army in the world all by itself. Fact check it. I'll wait.
@Not PC Correct. However, he was educated in the U. S., and understood us fairly well. He may have held that opinion privately, as he wasn't stupid.
The US, Canada, and Mexico are certainly different countries. But at the end of the day, I firmly believe that if one of us were to be invaded in such a way, The other two would immediately jump to the aid of the country that is being invaded. Without hesitation. North America as a whole, while we have our differences politically, are absolute allies when it comes to this.
They did not flinch or hesitate when we needed support following 9/11, THAT will never be forgotten.
The UK, also, showed how strong and unwavering their friendship was and always will be to this country.
C-Canada
U-USA
M-Mexico
@@julioflores612 Ah, yes! The three great nations that together form the triple threat, the invincible triad, unbearable triumph of C.U.M.
100%
That's because we know we're going to need you next time the Germans get all angry 🇬🇧
To be more accurate the number of firearms in America is close to 400 million and close 50 trillion rounds according to recent estimates...
There is 335 million people in the United States and 130 million of them are hunters 22 million are ex military with close to 12 million still being fighting age and as far as the gun estimates those are just the ones that the government knows about and doesn't count hand made weapons or even the Binary explosives owned by the US citizens or hand made explosives so yes the citizens will be far worse to deal with
When I was overseas I was told by a Bulgarian soldier that the US is the only country in the world that could take on an alien invasion.
John Ringo wrote an entire book series on that very topic.
lol, if Aliens can make it here bud, we will be like animals compared to them.
Maybe not. Very low tech people can manage to use high tech devices, so while the odds are high that you are correct, it's not guaranteed. Also, Ringo had some interesting creatures "driving". Consider that movie District 9; the Prawns could not maintain their tech at all.
@@brandonbowerstx Consider the movie? lol
We'll probably all die if aliens made it here, but the US probably has the best odds, which isn't alot
As an American growing up in the Midwest and currently living in Florida, the difference in the environmental landscape will have a huge impact on the invading force. Also the amount of guns owned by civilians is highly underrated.
I don’t know what you’re talking about I lost my 84 guns in a boating accident
Overkill is often underrated lol
I agree. Although, if it were China, we'd have a hard time. They have over 1 million ground troops.
@@Vetter07 you have to be able to supply and transport your ground troops.... They can do neither at the my moment
Ya it is.
As an American, it isn't the military people need to fear on American soil... it's the citizens. A ground assault would result in a bloody battle. There's millions of us that spent our childhood practicing by playing battle using laser tag and learning to navigate the woods without getting caught. Toss in their fierce pride for their country, massive amounts of personal weaponry that is owned...it just wouldn't be wise.
I must say, as an American.. our greatest weapon is the American spirit! Even though we are always at odds with each other but when we stand together it’s not to messed with!
wokeism and modern feminism has pretty much killed that... and if u deny that you haven't been paying attention. america is dying from within.
@@sunnydlight2375 ohh you’re 100% correct but that’s completely different from an invasion. That’s day to day issues, I can assure if anyone tries to overrun us those differences will go out the window
@@dominickelly5950 They would be, 9/11 showed what happens when we come together for a common enemy. I remember those days and the will to fight was very strong.
Let’s not forget the nearly one million veterans that just spent 20 years in combat.
Ever seen a typical turkey hunter? Almost on par with some SF groups at knowing terrain sneaking and closing for the kill. Forget veterans armed hunters much less military would be able to repel a legitimate invader.
The veterans that is left on the streets, homeless and with out food, yea those veterans, they will fight for their country for sure lol
330 million patriots to guard our borders. Scripture states "keep your sword sharp" OK we still have a few of those around however the modern weapons are more effective. If one looses his life breaking into your house, his blood is on his own head ! 😮😊😅
@@JacoKruger.They may well surprise you JacoKruger
Most anyone who is given the chance to stand for right will!
@@rslama9653 Our country isn't at all 'right'. Our country is the great evil On earth.
As a American I can absolutely say that our civilian population definitely has an upper hand with land knowledge and firearms. The will to fight and survive is in our dna. People here forget that we become united very very quickly under adverse conditions. Thank you for always grinding and giving us great content! And thank you for your service and making this world a better place
Exactly all our political infighting is literally our nerf, take that away and you'll have a very angry giant
also consider a good majority of us live in poverty, the fighting spirit is what we were raised on
Ehhhhh... I don't know about that, especially with a large portion of our population living in large cities. They have no idea how to even take care of themselves and large portions of that population would die off fairly quickly if everything was to shut down (food/supplies being shipped in).
A man recently said: "We have 150 thousand battle tanks just sitting in the desert (unused)" Imagine how many bases we have in USA. Was this desert Iraq? Was it Arizona? Was it Nevada? New Mexico?
This is just 1 area. USA is not to be taken lightly and everyone is strapped. Besides of the liberals, cause they want slavery back. Send them to China, their dream will be complete.
'Murica, Harold, America - Kumar
I am born in Ukraine but a full citizen of USA for more than 2 decades, and I always thought Ukraine was oppressed by its' own government, it was always hard to get firearms, and you can see huge effect of lack of firearms. Country was almost taken over in first week, but our Ukrainian military pushed them back. Human losses were massive. As any nation, you need firearms to defend your territory
It's in white people's DNA which is why the government want us bred out
