This is a question better asked in 1860.

Totalitarianism (or totalitarian rule) is a political system where the state holds total authority over the society and seeks to control all aspects of public and private life wherever necessary.

Not without about 150 million deaths at the hands of the willfully disarmed.

In a word...yes. And it will gain the approval of a majority as the compassionate thing to do.

If you want to believe the “nah, ain’t gonna happen here” crowd, the answer would be, no.

President Obama has a plan to restrict the right of firearms owners. Just wait and see in a couple of weeks from now.

Eventually. History is revolving door of kings and serfs, with the serfs gaining control for but a fleeting moment now and then.

It basically means that the Feds will have to get everyone to participate. Somehow I don’t think that’s going to happen.

Of course the third party dreamers, Ron Paul Paulshiveks, and priestly robe self-styled prophet types will hear none of that.

Maybe when ICE holds 30,000 “suspected illegals” without warrants, trials, or evidence? Or when the government keeps copies of all your emails? Or when IR equipped vans are used to see through the walls of citizen's homes? Or when the federal government wants to regulate every aspect of your life? Wait a minute....

It will happen, after all, you do not want to be seen as the Enemy of the State.
