Nice fantasy for the gun nuts.
However, in reality, if there were an uprising, it would be more like WACO TX than any thing else.
It would be fast, bloody, and the people rising up would probably lose.
The only way to be able to successfully take on the American Federal Government would be with a long, drawn out guerilla war, with small units operating independently all over the country against US military, infrastructure, and Government targets. I doubt that Ted and his buddies would have the guts to launch such a campaign.
After all, in every war where the locals have put out insurgency units rather than armies, the people in charge usually lose (including the revolutionary war, where the British really lost to small insurgency units rather than a big army).
First where do you get your facts?
U.S military stregnth 1,456,862,000
US troop strength Afganistan 94,000
U.S troop Strength Iraq 92,000
U.S troop strength South Korea 25,800
Yes, I can deem it likely with 1,244,000 troops

Just FYI we have troops in about 135 countries around the world. We are spread pretty thin.
So it looks like the person you quoted was really close. This doesn't even take into account all the veterans who are stateside.
There are 1,214,099[1] personnel on active duty in the United States and its territories:

Then who would it be that would satisfy everyone? Eddie Murphy? Mike Tyson? Ventura? Glenn Beck? Ron Paul?
It is the division that gives them strength. The division of the people.
