It's not that simple, we are at war. Much of what is happening is actually attacks from the enemies. Patriots are in control of the US but [they] tried to steal the country. This has been an ongoing plan for 50+ years. Wars take years and on top of it the federalized national guard have the task of keeping things private for maximum impact on the enemy but also to keep our country peaceful. The fact that the war isn't public is a miracle. They wanted a public war so they could justify killing off the gun owning citizen patriots.
