Pheonix Reaper Aw, dammit. My mind always fights itself when I stumble upon such topics. Well, I suppose to injure someone if they were going to injure or kill others if you don't is acceptable, but capital punishment...? ... No. I never have and never will agree with capital punishment. Though this arguement of mine will make sense to precious few of you, who are we to play God? twisted "Gods will not do for humans what they can do for themselves."

I'm going to have to suggest that no one in here take part of any protest or riot. There is no tactic in an open display of dissent, especially now adays. Too much media spin, as well as giving the swine a reason to play with their fun toys and display their coveted authority.

And sadly to say they have a major advantage. Ground troops are easily taken out with bullets and explosives. But they will own any battlefield because they have air superiority. If there was to be a war the "Rebels" need to figure out how to take out those whirly birds and planes otherwise any movement will be quickly quelled. It's one thing to have a strong front line against ground troops but once those hellfire missles and chain guns let loose any line will be torn to shreads. Death from above.

Azkeel And sadly to say they have a major advantage. Ground troops are easily taken out with bullets and explosives. You serious? The armor on a US soldier is steel-plated with Kevlar and can stop a 7.62 AK-47 round. Bullets can kill anyone, but they are armored to the teeth. Not only that, they have superior training, superior weapons and superior leadership. Not to mention that Gurella warfare is a tactic that really only works if only you have the home field advantage.

God Emperor Akhenaton Azkeel And sadly to say they have a major advantage. Ground troops are easily taken out with bullets and explosives. You serious? The armor on a US soldier is steel-plated with Kevlar and can stop a 7.62 AK-47 round. Bullets can kill anyone, but they are armored to the teeth. Not only that, they have superior training, superior weapons and superior leadership. Not to mention that Gurella warfare is a tactic that really only works if only you have the home field advantage. Let's see; a revolution usually happens on the home turf. Secondly their armour doesn't stop explosive shrapnel. Their armour also doesn't protect their neck, armpit, groin area, well you get the point. Main advantage civilians have is they are lighter, if the sodliers are wearing all that gear they are prone to over heating. And if they don't wear the balistics steel, kevlar is cut to shreds by bullets that don't spin. Also fire tends to rip through any of the above. The main disadvantage like I said is air.

HippiePeaceLover I believe that a peaceful revolution and a peaceful protest is always best smile That didn't really work for the hippies now did it? And thanks to their "Revolution" the DEA was created. Perhaps a peaceful revolution without the drugs but a peacful protest won't work with insurgent cops in the croud giving their buddies a reason to let loose.

Azkeel Let's see; a revolution usually happens on the home turf. Sucks for them. Azkeel Secondly their armour doesn't stop explosive shrapnel. It can depending on the intensity. There are many soldiers who survived IED's because of their armor. Azkeel Their armour also doesn't protect their neck, armpit, groin area, well you get the point. Have fun trying to hit those while your aim is impaired by stress and their mobility. Azkeel Main advantage civilians have is they are lighter, if the sodliers are wearing all that gear they are prone to over heating. Civilians are also unarmored, untrained, have less endurance and outgunned. And soldiers have fought in Iraq. They can stand the heat. Azkeel The main disadvantage like I said is air. The main disadvantage of a civilian army is that a trained military force is simply better.
