Well, yes. And depending on the degree to which they are successful, this is variously known as resistance, revolt, rebellion, revolution, and coup d’etat.

Hell, no.
You failed to bring forward one historical proof.
Also, a coup d’etat is something entirely different. Although a revolution/revolt/resistance can be conducted armed.
And of course I was sarcastic. The comments regarding third reich are just plain stupid.
For example, Mr. Jprocrastinator should know that a lot of Americans are of german heritage. So I assume they can’t become soldiers or bakers?
Also bumping into a discussion with a national resentment is certainly foolish.
Can’t you do better than that?
How about arguments?
