The US-Faced with China's looming threat, a growing number of regular citizens are learning to defend their homeland.

Right now, these guys are training in how to send a veteran from a rifle to a handgun.

The kind of combat techniques they say they're going to need to know if there's an invasion from China.

As from the ABC evening news last night, just regular people there in Taiwan trying to get some training on fighting.

Because they think they might have to while they're surrounded by warships.

Did you see how far China went in this exercise with the planes and the bombs and the boats and the putting out videos of what Taiwan would look like after they attacked?

Yeah, video of them obliterating Taiwan.

Yeah, they had mock-up pretty realistic video of what it would look like to blow it to bits and then distributed pictures of this is what your island is going to look like when we're done.

That's pretty provocative.

I would say.

Or I've heard that the Chinese are really rooting for a soft, unchained candidate to win the presidential election.

I think it's next year.

Our presidential election or Taiwan's?

Taiwan's.
