    They could temporarily trap a population within a city by surrounding it with some barricades and stuff but that won’t last long.

    Why wouldn’t it last long? Is there some sort of organized fighting force of the people we’re not aware of? Didn’t think so.

    The population size of the US has a massive ratio of more citizens than law enforcement and military. They can’t take us all.

    Yet they already are.

    For someone like me, if the food supplies were all cut off I could just live off of the land by hunting, fishing, and farming.

    Ah yes, the government has famously left people like you alone and totally won’t turn your land into gravel, drain your water table, and dump the pollution into your river.

      Yeah, looks like someone has never heard of the Siege of Serajevo. Really was not that long ago…
