Why fight the military and not the 100 elderly dudes running it all?

Because the guys with guns stand between you and the elderly dudes?

I really doubt every rich person and politician is walking around with a personal security detail. They still rely on contact with 'common people' in many facets of life.

Private security industry has been booming in the wake of Luigi. Sure, not as powerful as all the stuff my pictures represent but plenty to slow things down. If Luigi-style attacks became a popular sport then we’d soon see martial law enacted.

You can't use major military gear on your civilians unless you're willing to wipe them out. Also, commanders and soldiers will refuse.

Keep in mind: Our AR-15s fire the same bullets theirs do.
