That's what living in a dream world does for you. Sure you can buy guns and 'tactical' gear but have a look at the hardware you can't buy -- no machine guns, no AP rounds, nothing explosive (and that's just a start). You'd probably do OK against a bunch of 18th century redcoats but against a modern military or its surrogates, the National Guard and increasingly militarized police forces, you don't stand a chance. Wrapping yourself in the flag won't work either -- Old Glory is not bulletproof.

2nd Amendment fantasists are mostly a threat to their neighbors, not the government.
