If a man has made the conscious choice to aid and abet a tyrannical government by acting as its jackbooted thug, then I say, yes. He willingly chose to strip me of my God-given rights, and I will strip him of his life for that mistake.
Then you had best make up your mind now so that you are prepared to act decisively when the time comes.
And this is the variable that we're forgetting. If there were a complete "changing of the guard", so to speak, the ghetto entitlement dogs would lose their govt sponsored cocaine and pornography. Now we're talking about tens of millions of useless wastes-of-oxygen fighting for the govt.
When Tyranny becomes law, Rebellion becomes duty.
As a whole, Americans comply with the law. So Gov't creates laws to control the sheep.
We already have enough laws on the books to take guns away. There aren't many people who stand against gun permits, and other controls on weapons. As a American, we don't need a permit to carry or have a gun. Nor should there be any restriction on any such weapon. Yet, will still as a whole, comply. Class III, FFL, lol.
Even criminals are outlawed and prevented from having a gun in most cases! Even a criminal should have the basic right to defend themselves. As we create more laws, we will have more criminals. The police state will create a criminal out of everyone. Throw in medication and other 'things' that in the future will prevent you from getting a gun.
By force, lol.
The question I always have when this debate comes up is how will they find them...
Guns..what guns?
And if that 99% of people decide to change the constitution to ban guns? Then what? It would no longer be unconstitutional at that point. If this country keeps moving left at the speed it is now, there might soon be sizable pro-gun control majorities that support doing exactly that.
Right this moment there is no chance of that happening, but the speed of ideological left transformation we are going through is very rapid. Obama is most definitely fundamentally changing this nation, and like it or not the majority of Americans like and support him. Hussein got socialized medicine through when even FDR failed, and won an election after doing it. If he puts effort into banning guns, there is no reason to think that in a few years the majority of elected officials won't go along. So what then?
I have a number of weapons and lots of ammunition at my house. If 30 cops and a SWAT team really wanted to, I might last 5 minutes...after my house and myself were riddled with holes, I wonder how long my neighbors would hold out and what they would say a month later about my valiant stand?
As soon as the confiscation starts, groups are going to form. SWAT teams and others will be engaged in the open field. Being that most are trained at dynamic entry, they will be at a disadvantage.
I know how I'd feel... ashamed of HIM for making me do it. Ashamed of HIM for not standing up for The Constitution and being a mere puppet to a tyrannical government. I'd like to think that our military would be better than that, but based on what I saw happen during Hurricane Katrina, I'm not so sure. I really don't like the direction this whole thing is going, but I don't see much choice in the matter. Either roll over and play dead, or protect the last thing that really DOES protect us.
It’s one thing to tell someone something, and something completely different when action starts. I really don’t think any of this will happen , at least not for a number of generations, definitely not by the current administration.
The problem is they have to prove you have the guns. With no registration you could have sold them years ago.
Different times, different circumstances, different places, and mostly, different people.
You’ve already surrendered, apparently. Got yourself good and convinced that resistance to tyranny is futile.
That’s fine. Not everyone’s cut out to fight. Turn your guns in now. Maybe the crocodile will eat you last.
Obama doesn’t care about guns. He cares about shooting his mouth off and keeping his leftist base under control.
The Obama pattern is set. He talks big, promises big, and then pushes congress to pass something that accomplishes nothing and he will sign it and call it good.
Nobody is coming for your guns except garden variety criminals. The govt doesn’t want that fight.
I will make that decision when necessary.
Not really. This has played out the same in many countries, and I'm sure they, like you, thought "Different times, different circumstances, different places, and mostly, different people" and I'm sure they thought "It can't happen here." Well it CAN happen here.
Being elected president does not mean that he has the power to go against our constitutional rights. Our inalienable
rights. . . .
