Seventy Two Killed Resisting Gun Confiscation In Boston

They are, and they aren't.

Back then, the .gov did not have a monopoly on firepower - with the exception of the bayonets (them bastids looked real menacing when they advanced, reenactment or not!) the armaments were relatively equal....and more widespread than currently in the civil population.

While not all were Rebels, all had the potential to be a Rebel, and moderately effective in the field, especially with the tactics used early that would now be called asymmetrical warfare.

Now, the local PDs have SWAT wagons for this sort of op.
 
Let's not forget the government currently has FSA backing to support any "enforcement" deemed nessessary...

FSA = Free Shit Army for those not paying close enough attention.
