Sure, guerrilla warface can be very potent, but I don't realistically see not 10% but even 1/1000 of the US population resorting to it.
>That being said, there is still a need for the government to be balanced by fear of the people, Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia is not that far in the rear view mirror
Yes, but those are countries were the leaders were elected BY the people. I mean, Hitler was elected into office and had huge support even throughout the war, and the USSR come into being by a popular revolt, and it too had mass popular support, at least in the first years.
>and the evils that lurked in the hearts of those men is not confined to Europe, they walk among all nations and desire the same darkness.
True. After all it was the US that dropped 2 nuclear bombs on civillians, conducted medical experiments on unknowing people, had segregation and racism issues until at least the 70's and that has invaded more countries than any modern post-colonial western country. And it's one of the few western countries that still has the death penalty, I mean, what's with that?
