If our country gets invaded by a foreign military. How many of you are prepared?

[Danny_dan92]

Be honest with yourselves, the last time our country was invaded by a foreign country was in the 1700’s when the British fought us here which eventually led to the US being established in 1775.


People think we cannot be invaded due to our geographical position… this is false. If people think we are the only country with a Navy, with Naval air carriers etc. think again.


That being said, if we get invaded…. Are you prepared?


I am. Keep this concept as a possibility in the back of your minds.

I am

I’m not

Prepared enough. In asymmetric warfare you don't go toe-to-toe with the uniformed traditional army. It's not about brute force. It's about opportunity, patience and using your head.

We have seen over and over again throughout history how a small force can beat a much larger force in asymmetric warfare. But in the US it's not even a smaller force. The US has more armed civilians than the combined military of the entire world. Even if the US had no standing military, no country in the world could invade and hold the US, unless we let them have it.

Don't be silly. No one invades the USA as they cannot treat the USA any worse than the way the USA treats itself. Nothing kills and imprisons more Americans than other Americans. It's a social experiment lab of sorts.

No one wants to rule over such savages anyway. Unfortunately the USA has moved it's savages abroad, and it's invaded more countries than everyone other than the British and French empires.

To be fair, it will be the shortest lived empire as it's only been around for 200 odd years and will only be around for 30 or so more. Either they will break up the country like the Soviet Union before it, default on national debts, or go down like Atlantis with the Yellowstone Caldera erupting.

My country is somehow used to be invaded :P we have a long history :P

[purplepoppy]

Actually Japan was the last country to attack America on home soil.

[Danny_dan92]

True. That’s not an invasion. That was an assault

[WindAtMyBack]

The Japanese actually held US territory in WW2. They held a couple of small islands in Alaska and it took a year or two to kick them out. Nobody knows why they did it. It may have been a diversion. Or it may have been a plan to island hop to mainland US.

Really!!!

Did you know that our Department of Defense is called the Department of War in many countries because no one, and I mean no one, can live in peace because of America?

You by saying this adding salt to the injury

Typical Trump ally

[AngryCarl]

Why would you prepare for something that isn't going to happen? No one is going to attempt to put boots on the ground in the most heavily armed nation in the world. They are more likely to send someone over with a highly contagious and potentially deadly virus and wait for the country to implode.

[NathanDavis]

Texas is prepared...

not for temperatures below 10 though...

[NamerOfStars]

"Prepared" in what sense? Are you going to go toe-to-toe with an invading army?

[slatyb]

Prepared? In what way? I'm a bit past military age. Fortunately the chances are about zero.

[RedInnocent68]

To be fair, the Revolution wasn’t an invasion. The British were kind of already around…

[NamerOfStars]

He also ignores the invasion in the War of 1812.

[RedInnocent68]

Unless that’s sort of a continuation. Although, some will say the invasion went both ways…

[Staximus]

I have a 9mm and a shotgun but no rifles anymore, I'm fucked.

[Snakeyes7]

I'm working on it.
