I believe the front will be a little Bigger then just LA after a few days.

There are nationwide protests planed on the fascists bday and he already promised to send the military to any form of protest.

I'll believe it when I see it. Police could bomb their own cities with plastic explosives and Americans won't do anything about it.

They can't really do that in America, there's too much land and room and food.

50% of the produce we consume is grown in the California central valley. The rest is grown in a few areas of the Great plains and in Florida.

Most of the food you see growing anywhere else isn't for people, it's for livestock.

For someone like me, if the food supplies were all cut off I could just live off of the land by hunting, fishing, and farming.

I think you are overestimating just how much food "the land" can provide. You need around an acre a person for subsistence farming, and that is assuming you live in a region that has a decent climate, that you have irrigation, and have access to modern fertilizer and pesticides.

As far as hunting and fishing goes..... If a large sector of the population had to live off the land, the wildlife likely wouldn't last a single season. The only reason we still have the wild animal populations we currently have is because there are strict regulations monitoring the amount of people who hunt and fish.

Early Americans were able to devastate a larger healthier ecology with a tiny fraction of our current population. Most of our country's natural Forrest and woodland were already destroyed and artificially rehabilitated over a hundred years ago. We have very few old growth Forrest for us to actually live off of.

If it weren't for petrochemical fertilizer the natural nitrogen cycle wouldn't be enough to sustain our current population. Since the invention of the haber process in the 1930s we are all just a bad year away from food insecurity.

I'd be careful with that last point - when a modern people is suddenly forced to turn to the land for sustenance instead of the industrial supply chain, overfishing and overhunting become problems quickly...you won't be the only person out looking for a meal.

For someone like me, if the food supplies were all cut off I could just live off of the land by hunting, fishing, and farming.

A government that is willing to cut off food supplies, isn't likely to allow people the freedom to farm, fish or hunt.

They could temporarily trap a population within a city by surrounding it with some barricades and stuff but that won’t last long.

Why wouldn't it last long? Is there some sort of organized fighting force of the people we're not aware of? Didn't think so.

The population size of the US has a massive ratio of more citizens than law enforcement and military. They can’t take us all.

Yet they already are.

For someone like me, if the food supplies were all cut off I could just live off of the land by hunting, fishing, and farming.

Ah yes, the government has famously left people like you alone and totally won't turn your land into gravel, drain your water table, and dump the pollution into your river.
