the good guys aren't coming to save us because we are the country that are supposed to be the good guys in the world. It's up to us to save ourselves. But I can't blame anyone for not wanting to step up and lead. The next morning they get into a "car accident" because their "breaks failed" or a home intruder shoots them in the head, and leaves without stealing anything.
The good guys from another country would not mess with us since most would see us as the bad guys anyway. Resistance is coming however, there is only so far that people can be pushed before they fight back. That is the reason for the FEMA camps all around the nation and the ordering of all those rounds of ammunition, they fully expect resistance at some point. When people have nothing left to lose, they are free from anything that was restraining them before from taking action. How effective the resistance will be is yet to be seen, but there will be some resistance.
