Who exactly do Americans absolutely need to be worrying about invading their cities? Canada and Mexico would never attempt it and no one is going to start a naval conflict with America.

History means nothing in this context.

You said "territories," not cities. That's strike one.

Second, most of America's biggest invasions have been from overseas -- specifically by Britain, by trying to argue, "Well, it can only be Canada or Mexico!" demonstrates a profound historical ignorance (although Mexico has had border disputes with the US in the past).

Third, you rather hilariously think modern warfare is still defined by naval combat. While boats might be used for troop landings, nowadays the biggest use for ships is aircraft carriers.

But, if you want to pigeonhole it into invading cities, the US has seen cities descend into violent, lawless chaos in recent years where civilian firearms were the only thing saving people from being hurt, raped, or even murdered.
