its not a difference between US and Canada, its a difference between thinking irrationally that you will overthrow your government because you don’t like what they are doing, and being practical.
Go ahead, start an actual rebellion against the government, see how far you get. The government has bigger and better weapons than you. Just more dead is all that would be accomplished. Too much hot air in the room. Need some AC in in here.
I don't know about you Canucks... but having served in the US Military (Marine Corps) to be specific, It would be very hard pressed for me to see an American military member shoot another American because someone in Washington said to....
I am sure the Government could purchase support from groups that already promote violence, gangs and such but not many here would support the government trying to suppress an uprising as it were.
I personally hope it never comes to anything like this, because as you say there would be a bunch of death because of the current shit show we here call society.
Anyways... Take off....
