In short we've learned nothing, done nothing, and will be caught flat again. If you're not ready, get ready, because no one is coming to save you.

First off, if that dude stayed still, just take cover.

Secondly, they had CANNONS in the 1800s. Do you know the effective range of a modern semiautomatic rifle? Effective ranges would be around 300 meters.

Some "couch surfer" who can barely hold a rifle wouldn't hit shit over 150m.

And again, if they just sat in the same spot, even muskets could take him down.

Goddamn American fantasies. Get better fantasies.
