This has turned out to be a very good and informative thread.
TS,
Your post leads me to think that maybe military arms should be available to the masses so that if the gov't were to get out of hand the masses could rise up and put it back in its place.
While I understand your analogy about the North Vietnamese, I don't necessarily think you are right. With the technology that the military has today compared to that of the 60's and 70's, and the good possibility that the U.S. never wanted to actually win the Vietnam War, I find it a very tough analogy to today's U.S. Armed Forces putting down a revolt of the people, unless of course some of the military is involved in the revolt and we actually have a civil war.
