There will be violence, no doubt about it.
But the point is not to die in a war, but to win, and considering our enemies, I think we have pretty good chances. Also it's easy to come to terms with your own death, but are you prepared to see your friends die? Are you prepared to knock on his family home's door and face his wife and mother to tell them he's gone?
The worst thing of all will be hugging your family and walking out that door and not knowing if it's the last time you will ever see them.
As they say - sweat spares blood. Start preparing and training now, together with your buddies.
As General Patton said (change country to side):
“No dumb bastard ever won a war by going out and dying for his country. He won it by making some other dumb bastard die for his country."
But the point is not to die in a war, but to win,
Always remember this.
There is one primary goal of fighting- TO WIN. All other goals associated with the fight are secondary, as if you don't win the fight, you can't accomplish anything further.
In any fight, between some drunk jerk hassling you, or in a guerilla war where you're a partisan fighting for your country, you fight to win.
