Historically yes, but that doesn't make it a requirement for the future, there's really no need for the greed and violence but here we are.

Aren't most of the big time destructive weapons down south (I'm Canadian) kept pretty much under federal lock and key to prevent that sort of thing?

I understand a great many people own small arms but do you think revolution down there would actually get to being much bigger than that destructive?

Even our small arms are much more destructive than the last time there was a true revolution in a first world country. Fairly common assault rifles have been used to kill hundreds of people in the US.
