They haven't come for us in Canada yet, and in fact are in the "finding out" phase of the lesson in why they shouldn't.

    We have an army of beavers, cobra chickens, and mad rabbits.

    We also have people effectively indistinguishable from them which would make us invisible in the war of resistance, allowing operations deep behind enemy lines.

    Keep in mind the USA couldn't win a war with people who looked very different from them. Oh, wait. That doesn't narrow it down very much at all. I mean I could be talking about Vietnam here. Or Somalia. Or Pakistan. Or Afghanistan. Or ...

    Whichever I meant, though, the USA has consistently shown its inability to hold territory even when "us vs. them" was pretty clear to establish. What chance do you think they'll have when faced with people who look and talk just like them?
