Veronica's thought experiment: I think about what Americans would do if Canadians started coming over the border with tanks, guns, bombs, etc., and our two countries are much more alike in the make up of their populations. Of course, we would have snipers, suicide bombers, etc.

No we wouldn't. If Canada were to invade, we would have a conventional war between nation states, fought between armies. The purpose of each side would be to destroy the other's ability to make war.
