you are correct on the 2nd Amendment and the ability of the populance to deter a organized Force. Which is why in several models the consenus is that internal civil unrest would be started, exploited and then maximined, thus allowing possiabilities for explortation.
Do I subscribe to this camp no, but I don't discount the validity of it could happen.
I was just going to say that the enemies of the US realize that there are more firearms here per capita than any other place on earth, despite what cherry-picked country the UN might use for their statistics. That being said, consider how they would use firearms ownership as a means to exacerbate societal unrest, what roles foreign ammunition supply play into this (price US-made ammo out of the civilian market, while pushing for more prohobitively expensive "green" military ammo), until Wolf and Barnaul are the only games in town, then cut imports over a certain period.
Keep in mind the current administration attempted to literally BAN all lead ammunition and fishing weights through the EPA. They just declared it a harmful substance to the environment, then faced an immediate backlash when the D.C. Capitol switchboard melted from the calls, and backed off a bit on ammo first, while still holding to the fishing weight ban, until that was shot down as well.
