yeah I am sure that a few semi automatic weapons will stop the army if its wants to coup, there have been only a very few cases in recent history when the local population were able to defeat government armies and that to with massive external assistance..... I am sorry I think your reasoning is flawed, a million Indians raise up with 9mm Bretta pistols and 50 rounds all the military is going to do is bomb our asses to kingdom come and shell the reaming survivorsTwo points here:
- Do coups happen all over the world? Yes. So why this blind belief that the army, or part of it, cannot plot a coup? The army people are humans recruited from amongst us, the very Indians, who also produce corrupt leaders and officials. Is there no dishonesty in the security forces? Ketchup colonel anyone? Please, those from the Army, do not take this personally, because I am not accusing you; take it personally when I accuse you.
- Why should the citizens not have the right to bear arms? Let us all have this right. Will people start shooting each other? Sure, they perhaps will. However, those that want to break the law, will anyway get weapons if they want to have them. If at least 50% of each of the families had at least one semi-automatic weapon and a box of 50 bullets at home, no country, whether PRC or Pakistan will dare enter this land, and even the army will think twice before participating in a coup.
Secondly Indian Military wont coup simply because there is no reason for them to coup, the Fat Cats in the military are happy where they are now making money of the government and vast vast majority are very patriotic people .....
