If every Gang member in America united, could they take on the U.S Military?

[Monster]

First off the scenario is unlikley to happen. White gangs are typically racist and have ties to white supremacist militias who will help them. The United States is not homogenous country where the general public could unite to ovverthrow the govt. There is so many different opinions and different goals different political ideologies that wouldnt happen. Gangs wouldnt represent the people they would actually be the opposite. They would be agents to divide. Gangs are only driven by money and if the govt descided to put out a 300 billion dollar program for gangs to fight against the people they would take it. That was how the US military did to defeat ISIS when they were AQI(Al Qaida in Iraq) back in the insurgency days in the mid 2000s. They paid Sunni tribes huge amounts of cash to fight against ISIS. That is why when ISIS took over last year they killed the same Sunni warlords that turned against then wholesale. Gangs arent trained in firarms,do not know how to grow food,do they have international contacts to get weapons? For an insurgency to suceed they need external and internal support. In the black community contrary to cac conservative media we do not support gangs and actually see them as bandits in the community.

Example of different races banding together.- say everyone mutually agrees we don't like each other or whites don't like no one, but that the current system is bad. Maybe each group agrees to take a region of America after the takeover. And if shot gets bad enough in America people might prefer gangs over government. It's a common saying for some that they "preferred when the mob ran the streets over the police"

A lot of you all are talking out of your asses. In a conventional war yes the US military is second to none. BUT...Why do you think the military never dismantled the numerous terrorist groups that keep popping up in the middle East? Because there is no tactic known to man that effectively eliminates an enemy using guerilla warfare. We're talking asymmetrical warfare. And the fact the gangs would be operating already within the US in large numbers plus the numerous connections that any reparable gang would have, the US would be implode. The whole US military is only 1% of the country. There are tons of more gangsters. And not to mention there are plenty of gangsters IN the military yeah...isolated and random attacks is any governments worst nightmare.

Good thread @Monster these guys are just jumping to the first conclusion their little mind can expand to.

I hope you're joking if you think terrorist groups in the Middle East are equivalent to gangs in the US.
Who do you think the US trained, funded and armed to fight the Soviets?
There's a reason they're so difficult to quash, and it's not just the guerilla warfare.

The real question is, "If all the gangs in the US united, could they beat one tank driven by a Marine?"

 

[KravenMorehead™]

Yeah.

Took three pages for someone to say it.

Head on....hell no.

But guerrilla warfare, there a chance. you nikkas are completely overrating the U.S. military if you think millions of people couldn't swarm bases and overtake them. That's the delicate balance of society, convincing the many to be scared of the few. If millions of people decided to riot, it would be anarchy. the only way to stop it would be the nuke the entire country.

Military clothes bump

The military has sonic weaponry that can disable you and make you piss your pants without firing a physical shot. Gang members can shoot sideways, the most inefficient method of shooting. These are the idiots who kill children and the elderly while aiming for their enemies. They don't have the intelligence (mental or information), tactics, weaponry, capital or support to take on the military. The well trained CAC militias would be slaughtered and hung by the military without a second thought, just imagine what they would do to untrained black and brown gang members.

They could make things tough enough to bring the states to the negotiating table but they couldn't actually beat them.
