The problem is, there is no chance for peace.
Yes, I am going to buy a gun. Now. It's pretty easy to do in Florida.

I am still not sure that you understand the difference between war and peace if you think that 1 Mln or 500K armed Nazis in the streets are too little to bother and nothing to worry about.

Given the response of the Capitol Police, who can blame them?
Yes, here is the problem. We don't know (and may never know) what exactly happened on 1/6. Was Capitol Police just unprepared or intentionally complicit with the mob? What happened to National Guard deployment? I've read like 4 versions of that - from Capitol Police refusal to call Guard - to Pentagon Trump's urgent replacements refusal to sanction Guard deployment in DC.
My point is - are you sure that in case of serious insurgency you know on which side police and army would be? A coup may be successful only if serious forces are in. That's why the letter of 10 former Secretaries of Defense was so timely and important.
Dick Cheyney saving US democracy?!!! Can you believe in it?
