What Would a Real Insurgency in the US Look Like?

OK, you don't know the big difference between the British in the War for Independence or the US in places like Viet Nam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
Let's say it takes a lot more than guns to win a war: not to mention the cost is prohibitive in more than one way.
The problem is that you are fighting a civil war--not a foreign invader.  You will be the person starting the war, not the government.  Additionally, you will be trying to persuade people to join your side after you have made efforts to destabilise society.
Look a the reactions to Oklahoma City and Boston to get an idea of what you will be facing: more Boston than Oklahoma City.
And don't think your opponent isn't more than ready for you.
So, don't say "molon labe" if you can't deal with the reality of that scenario.
Of course, you all know way more than I do about this.  I can see that from your comments.{1}
