[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Which US state is the weakest? (Page 1 of 5)

Posted: 10/24/2013 6:50:14 PM EDT

If a state was under attack from an enemy and got no help from the US government. They would have to
depend on state guard if they have one, police and citizens. So what state would be the easiest to take over?

Easy answer. Geography dictates this outcome before the fighting even starts.

IDK, but I'm gonna throw a guess out there at it being either a central state like Arkansas or a minuscule state like Connecticut that doesn't have much land mass.

ETA: Hmmm... rethinking this. Hawaii or Alaska. I don't know what their National Guard forces are like, but I would bet that Hawaii relies on the Fed alot and While everyone in Alaska has a gun, the population is not concentrated and spread out pretty thin. Good for guerrilla warfare, but not so much for a concentrated effort on behalf of the defenders. Alaska would be overrun and a guerrilla insurgency would ensue.

It would depend on the enemy. Cali would fold to a North Korea or China, but fight to the death if it was the TEA Party.

RI. There are more people in San Francisco Bay Area than Rhode Island. Because Rhode Island is so small, it has no depth of defense like Texas or California would have either.

Cali's got The Stumps, so that alone makes up for the 22 million gays. No overrunning that bitch.

Thus, it's Massachusetts. You fruits have fallen a damn long way since Lexington and Concord. Not even the same race.

In the lower 48 I'd have to say my own state of NM. Some based on population density (lack their of). Also the many reservations that are heavily FSA.

My town of 20000 explodes to 60000 every first and last if the month or pay Friday.

As well in my area (and like much of the state) numerous pawn shops buying more firearms than selling.

LOTS of guns, lots of agriculture and long growing season, rough terrain in the South, closed insular social groups with strong cohesion, moderate to strong sense of self reliance and "bushcraft", and like most Southern states a lot of veterans. I hope you're not a military planner.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, we have scorpions and snakes and all kinds of poisonous shit. Also, every plant, and I mean every single plant, tree, vine, fungus or what have you, has some kind of spike or thorn or barbed hell device sticking out of it. This place sucks.

New Orleans was the Unions bitch in the last bit of unpleasantness. After seeing how the people of NOLA behaved during Katrina I would expect even less the next go-around.
