    Bulletproof encryption isn't the only recourse left: Bullets are. Bullets, and, if we're lucky, our military completely loaded with 'democracy'm to deal with the military gear the LEO crime gangs now have at their disposal. The justice system has utterly collapsed. The founding fathers warned us it would need doing eventually.

    Wrong.
    The founders saw that INSURRECTION against the state appointed leaders (Police, judges) would be a danger to the status quo, and made ALL OF YOUR (militia) liable to be drafted to "putting down insurrections" in ARticle 1.
    As for the Military, they do not serve democracy, as noted by the enthusiastic volunteering to kill in Afghanistan and Iraq on the orders of a NOT elected leader (bush v. Gore stopped the count of legal votes)

    Except that in the 1770's forming a militia was roughly similar to a Sheriff gathering a posse in the 1870's to hunt down a dangerous outlaw

    Membership and drill were MANDATORY throughout the 13 states AND failure to report for drill or discipline could result in flogging and the stocks
    EVERY male citizen was required to be available at all times and to maintain appropriate weapons
