I mean the general problem is what I'd note as what syndrome's plan was in the incredibles.
IE syndrome's plan was basically to create superpowers, making everyone a superhero so that no one is special or above everything...
with the noted exception that the strongest superpowers are reserved for himself.
Biggest thing IMO with the gun rights people is... noting that even if we all have AR-15s or whatever the hell we are supposed to use to stop facism. Millitary tech is getting scarrier. We're probably a year or 2 away from armed boston dynamic style robots, or more focused AI based drones etc....
Our only shot is guys controlling the governments arsenal taking our side.... which is kind of the exact scenerio we are in with or without guns.
You mean autonomous drones that don't need a human to pull the trigger? Because we already have drones with weapons, they just need pilots.
My point is more or less the already partially existing human controlled drones, though also noting the possibility of say the next wave where they don't go past just getting a target and committing assassinations.
Point is the idea of specific targetted (IE concepts of weapons that could be as precise, as undamaging towards infrastructure as foot soldiers with guns, but without requiring humans that are at least vulnerable to conventional weaponry.
