It is here: Court ruling paves way for mass confiscation of firearms in America

Bring it on now. Not later. Let’s get this over with once and for all.

[struggle]

Let’s see.

I don’t think people are going to be stuffed into black marias like during Stalin’s time.

After the first few “interactions,” things will quickly change.

[Pox]

The liberal 2nd court of appeals can pave all they please. In the end, they have done nothing other than identify that the government is intending to deny the common man a useful tool that can be used effectively against government tyranny.

This is the wrong time for them to start their push as there as far too many Americans who have nothing to lose when finally backed into a corner, and their arrogance is what will finally push the common man to finally take up arms against a federal government who has gotten out of control, IMO.

DITTO!

This insane ruling WILL end up at the SCOTUS and if THEY should rule to nullify the Second Amendment, they'll be seeing more firearms they could ever imagine, and they won't be showing up in some government 'cash for guns' program, they'll be showing up in the holsters, and on the shoulders of We The People of the United States and the words of Thomas Jefferson shall be fulfilled, i.e., "The Tree of Liberty must periodically be watered with the blood of patriots and tyrants"

I got my watering can ready, how about everyone else?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago

I agree. Let’s have this fight now. The guns and remaining ammo will be flying off the shelves in the gun stores starting tomorrow. If you’ve been watching something that you want to buy, you better buy it soon.

Send the authorities a registered letter with a list of your firearms, and a week deadline for them to confiscate them, at a place of YOUR choosing.

If they refuse to act, then THEY become "outlawed", with all the medieval connotations that the designation entails.

[SkyDancer]

Well good luck with that.

[BigEdLB]

Would like to watch some effeminate squirrely bureaucrat try to start confiscating. even if he has US Marshalls trying to back him up.

[sport]

The one question that remains is whether or not the American people will stand by as their 2nd Amendment right is openly destroyed right before their very eyes.

As late as 2000 I would have said no, that they would fight. Today, 2015 , other than a few that the Government will make examples of, the majority will surrender. Give the Government about 5 more years to get more people on anti depressants, feminize the males more, and the Government won't have to confiscate them. The civilians will voluntarily surrender them.

[kiryandil]

See my post #9.

Slap them across the face with a gauntlet.

Rounding up all the gun owners in the United States is impossible, of course, if the government is unable to round up a mere “ll million” illegals.

[Jack Hydrazine]

This is what I don’t understand. There are at least 300 million firearms in the USA with at least 56% of the population who love having them and the right to use them against tyranny large and small. If the establishment tries to confiscate them don’t they understand it will be complete suicide for them to do so? Don’t they know they are automatically signing their own death warrants?

Are they THAT out to lunch?

[Signalman]

C'mon Mr. Liberal. Take my gun. Please.

[bakeneko]

Well...

I know I’ll get some flak for this, but...

This is New York State business.

Federal Court just says (rightly, IMO), “It’s none of our business.” Doesn’t mean that they approve of it.

Should have been taken up with the NY State Supreme Court.

If you want a ‘republican form of government’ this is it in action.

How much you wanna bet that the Obama Administration is secretly registering gun buyer’s via NICS. I don’t trust anything with this government.

[Califreak]

They would move heaven and earth to do that if they really could.

Money would be no object.

They wouldn’t have to go door to door.

What if they froze bank accounts or seized property?
