An armed uprising won't transpire, but a time will come
when people will run away from cities.
Even if you disagree with prophecy, I very much doubt that you truly
believe that there is men and women in great numbers that will fight.
After spending 26 years on this planet, it will not be a surprise to
me
when my neighbors, family & friends are first in line to
the inoculation centers.
Why?
Because it will be the simpliest of things.

No. Nor have the mass of national politicians been trustworthy since FDR or before.
It might be good that Congress is likely to pass a Draconian anti-terrorism law. The nibbling away at civil rights has gone generally without effective opposition. About the only hope for the retention of our rights is a massive chunk bitten off at once, while there are still enough armed Americans to put politicians in fear of their lives. I'm not actually hoping for an armed uprising, but the fear of one is clearly the only thing which will bring Congress, the federal courts, and the President to heel.
