We aren't talking about revolutions, we are talking about the police kicking your door down at 3 am. You'll be lucky if you can even get to your gun before they get you. That is why I disagree with Solzhenitsyn. Action beats reaction. Don't be surprised, surprise them.
And even if you fortify, you won't get more of them than they get of you. Just look at Ruby Ridge: 3 of the Weavers were killed, and only one cop died. Or look at Waco, where only one cop was injured, and that was from friendly fire.
I agree it's not a perfect comparison, but the idea is that once words starts going around town that neighbors are being disappeared in the middle of the night, people start setting up defenses in their homes. Stuff like sleeping with doors barricaded and weapons by their beds.
Will that change everything and lead to the desired outcome for the people? Not on its own but it's an important first step. You have to start somewhere.
