There are at minimum 50 million Americans who think exactly this way. If push comes to shove, it would all be over in 24 hours.

That's why I don't don't really get too worried with all the hand wringing. Either way this situation is going to be resolved; the easy way ... or the hard way.

Do you really think there is any remote possibility that patriots would somehow fail to prevail in a direct conflict with the government?

The government knows this and will start a war with China to get all the patriots feeling patriotic again.

If it comes to armed conflict, it will not be over in 24 hours. It would be a long, ugly slog. I don't think patriots would fail in a direct conflict, but it would not be quick. Remember, most military experts of the time believe WWI would only last a few months at most.
