First, I didn't say it would be easy. Second, one doesn't need modern weapons to really mess things up for the occupying force.
Give me something as simple as hatchet and a roving patrol that's not paying attention. Very crude simple weapons can easily be turned into whatever the enemy is carrying.
Finally the Brits didn't find it very gentlemenly of those revolutionaries who hid behind trees! You have to take advantage of every opportunity you can find.
If all else fails, ask for help, the U.S. would probably do a lot for the oppresed people of Iraq, but they aren't willing to help themselves.
Really? Not a damn thing? Nothing???? Wow, I guess someone should tell the Red Coats that this strugling young country did nothing, and they have no excuse for having lost the war.
It's called revolution, and if you aren't willing to take a stand and risk getting shot then quit yer' bitchin'.
The U.S. isn't the great country it is because of the industrial revolution. We're great because when the time came we kicked ass and took numbers. We sent our boys off to die so slashdotters can bitch about their lousy DSL service....
Geeez, when I took calculus if the answer was 38162.62515 / 86.721, it was perfectly acceptable to leave that as the answer.
Usually you would end up with something more like sqrt(pi)/4. The prof was more concerened about you understanding the problem, not working out what the square root of pi was......
As the original poster of the question, I gotta ask, why is zebra so hard to find? I searched for rip2 in Freshmeat, Google, Sorceforge, etc..... Hmm......
Interesting, and where will you leave to, when there is no place left to go? You are assuming there will always be a place you find acceptable to leave to. I wouldn't hold my breath on that thought.
And people can choose to take back their rights, by force if necessary. Is the DMCA worth taking up arms over, probably not. The Brady Bill, probably not. How about water rights, probably not. But add them all together and the government no longer represents the rights and concerns of the people. As a matter of fact, the declaration of independence calls it our duty to stop the tyranny of government. Maybe it's time to stop living off of dead veterans and pay for what we have... Just a thought.
You can damn well bet if I get stopped at a 'checkpoint' there is going to be a scene. Government, at least here, is BY the people, OF the people, and FOR the people. The reason this shit happens is because people DON'T stand up for their rights, bunch of cows bein' led to slaughter.
In a required class to get my CS degree we had to design a 4 bit CPU. Granted this was done in one of those EDA tools, like a digital version Spice. But it required the whole show, registers, memory, microcode, etc. Because of it I have a much better understanding of what my code is doing today. So you may be joking, trolling, but yeah at some point you should at least be exposed to flipping bits to get something to run.
OO is high level, teach them assembler first and how the machine works. I've seen way too many people writing really crappy code because they have no idea what's going on inside the machine.
When I start see stories on the news that relay the truth about the failure of gun control, and how citizens legally & justifiably kill 3 times more criminals then law enforcement every year, then, and only then, will I believe the government doesn't somehow control and direct mass media.
> As enemies the WTO and UN, backed if necessary by the military might of the entire western world, are truly fearsome.
Well since we appear to have just jumped off the deep end.... The Western military is impressive against fortified divisions, bomb factories, airports, ports, etc. Air supierority is extremely impressive also, dominating the skys as it sees fit.
But, the Western military falls apart when attempting to engage non fortified mobile enemies. Take note of the past several years worth of "Peace Keeping" activity where this military-might proved ineffective. Any sufficiently organized revolution is going to take the Geneva convention and all other forms of "proper military conduct" and toss them out the window. But I've said enough already.
Considering there is no un-discovered continents left on this planet, where do you plan to form this country? Or is this going to be an e-country? I'm amazed at how many people run when the smell of battle is in the air. If you don't stand your ground no one is going to do it for you. The American colonists were not left alone by the Brits, don't think that you can escape the WTO, UN, and any other of those anti-personal-freedom organizations out there by forming your own country!

If the user was warned (and a EULA is at minimum a warning), does he really have any legal recourse?
By installing this software you agree to giving us your first born child.....
I'm not sure all EULA's would be enforcable. I seem to remember some clause about not being able to contract away your rights.
Don't worry, by then the gun grabbers will have completed their mission. Then everybody will stand up, say "No!", and realize no one is listening.
That's funny because "Scripture" is responsible for most of these conflicts.
Which particular point are you responding to? Your post wasn't very coherent.

Thank You.... And have a nice fucking day.
This is being discussed on the LKML right now!
Yeah, but the NRA is going to be far more prepared to "back it up" it when everything goes to hell.
/. geeks gonna do? Whine louder?
What's a bunch of
And yes I am a proud card carrying member of the NRA.
1 - Strap nuke to remote controlled robot
2 - Drive robot deep into cave with hidden "bad-guys"
3 - Duck!
4 - Detonate nuke
Problem solved.

Ah yes, the stuff revolutions are made of!
Maybe EFF should start printing cards and selling them.

We also need better CS/CE majors, not these people I see who believe it is impossible to program without a proper IDE environment.

Oh yes, you are of course 100% correct, silly of me to think that a newscast was supposed to be reporting the facts.

So which government controls Time-Warner?
When I start see stories on the news that relay the truth about the failure of gun control, and how citizens legally & justifiably kill 3 times more criminals then law enforcement every year, then, and only then, will I believe the government doesn't somehow control and direct mass media.

i dunno, man, sounds pretty shallow when the only way to to show gratitude is with money.
So what else of value do you have to offer?
Why do I think this will be considered trolling...
