The fear of surveillance is as powerful a weapon against you as surveillance itself. You can’t let it paralyze you into inaction. If you are taking steps to resist with arms, you will have to come to terms with the fact that sooner or later you will be identified and become a fugitive. There is a massive gap in law enforcement effort between being identified and being captured/eliminated.

Right now you can buy quality, self-loading firearms with a driver’s license (in most states). You can have thousands of rounds of ammunition shipped to your doorstep (in most states). Neither is going to flag you as a terrorist and have you instantly arrested, because many thousands of Americans do this every single day. You’d be a fool to not take advantage of this.
