OK, I thought you were referring to the part about using the "so-called" assault weapons in self defense. I apologize for that, because her last point about defending herself from a tyrannical government is even more absurd.

Let's just assume for the sake of argument that the government is out to get us lowly citizens, confiscate all of our wealth, and create a communist dystopia. And, let's also assume that the various militias and resistance movements across this great country banded together, created an infrastructure for organizing themselves, etc. Do they stand a chance against the U.S. military? A hundred guys with assault rifles aren't going to take out a tank squadron. A thousand guys with extended magazines on their Glocks aren't going to take down an FA-18. The sum total of all the gun owners in this country with all of their weapons won't be able to do anything against a carrier battle group.

The idea that citizens are taking up arms to fight off tyranny a la 1775 is romantic, but it's antiquated and just plain silly.
