Wtf. The US military does indeed exist, even to quash internal rebellion. The national guard is the branch that would deal with such a threat. The number of armed citizens alone might suprise you as well. So all in all, I am not sure what you mean. Anyone could 'attack a city in their own interest', but there are quite a few organized parties very invested in resisting that with their lives.
