That is may summation. All that is left is the suffering of persecution by the few righteous who are left.

This is exactly how it will happen. It will be such a gradual process that most wont notice, until it is too late.

Guns? What guns?

Civil disobedience is order, and civil is the operative word. Do not register any weapon. It will make it more difficult for them to confiscate. If they do attempt to confiscate, civil is no longer the operative word.

Now this is really important, so take some time and think about. At the time of confiscation, the operative word becomes "offensive". For positive imagery purposes, think of the British retreat from Lexington and Concord back to Boston. That is what Americans do to tyrants that try to confiscate our weapons.

Registration, licensing, short-term licensing requiring frequent renewal with ever-increasing licensing cost ...

It’s unconstitutional to license a right.

They probably wont get around to it, because they will have crashed the economy before long,
and will be sorta busy dealing with social chaos as people go 'Mad Max' fighting for necessities.

Someone will bring this up sooner or later, but assuming you are right (that the government will "make us pay dearly" for our 2nd amendment rights), how can they justify it?

The Bill of Rights should apply equally to the poor as well as the rich. Unjust and excessive taxation of gun ownership is discrimination against the poor.

The SCOTUS says that a woman's right to privacy (i.e. abortion) is so important that the taxpayers must provide it for free to those unable to afford it.

They said that a person's right to vote was absolute, such that any attempt to charge a fee (poll tax) was unconstitutional.

Is Sandra Fluke's right to birth control more important than a single mother's right to protect her family?

We must get the backing of states, or break away areas within states, to openly defy the federal government on blatantly unconstitutional laws and mandates, thereby bringing us into conflict. The feds must be put in a position to accept us retaking our liberty, or using armed force against the state to impose tyranny. The American public will not support the price that it would take on both sides for this aggression, and neither will many who would potentially be the ones to enforce tyranny.

Even a smaller group of armed patriots gathered openly would cause hesitation because of the unpopular toll that it would take defeating them. Liberals for the most part wouldn't accept any action any more than Conservatives, and Obama doesn't control a giant robotic force that can't refuse orders.

One of the rumored executive orders Obama will issue will withhold state funds if not obeyed. That's the kind of issues that should be openly defied, and once they try withholding funds then federal tax collection should be stopped. Our best option is getting them to come to us anyway we can before having to go to them. I think it can be much more successful than an armed march on Washington, or having to make the first move to fight. Each side would rather the other escalate any violence, before reacting with violence. Having a specific enemy, and a preferred outlet to act is wanted, but is something you should assume won't be the case.

Open defiance at the local level of these issues and others like Obamacare also have the most potential for a peaceful outcome. I don't think the feds would fill comfortable escalating the situation. The stronger the patriot force and resolve, the less likely they would underestimate the toll that aggression would cost. I believe we can have a peaceful revolt this way, but we all have to do what we can to get things moving in time if it's going to be possible.
