Democracy only works with the consent of the governed.
If the politicians refuse to acknowledge this, the government is no longer democratic and becomes tyranny.
Should they try to register everyone’s weapons so be it. But, millions upon millions would just deny their ownership.
Do the politicians really want to fine them? Threaten? Imprison?
The same thing goes for the IRS. We pay our taxes because we support the government. If tens of millions refused to pay, file or participate, how long would this government last?
Yes, there are elections and yes, the democrats won. This time. However, when the individual citizen begins to say “enough” and there are tens of millions who agree on the left and the right, the politicians had better listen.
Once again, people pass laws against that which they fear. Every politician fears the people and want to disarm them in order to avoid the inevitable backlash. The people see what the politicians are interested in at public expense: $1,000 dinners, $4,000 bottles of wine plus the finest cocaine,$5,000 per night twelve year old girls and for variety 10 year old boys and sometimes both together,free clothing, the finest medical care without cost, free tickets to every top event, free travel, free housing and utilities, travel and free room and board at lush surroundings from which the people are barred and lastly any other vice known to man, all free.
