All the urbanites can pack their butts like sardines into a corner of their new nanny state! They will be happy as utopian larks. They won't permit anyone to live outside their cities so there won't be any country/city mouse divisions in paradise.

I try not to use the word ‘impossible’ because situations can change in a hurry. How many law-abiding people voluntary gave up their firearms in NOLA after Katrina when the order for confiscation was given by the city government?

Quite a number did.

How did the police track them down? The paperwork that gun owners filled out when they purchased them.

An emergency in this country has to be precipitated in order for a government to justify full national gun confiscation. When, not if, the financial system of this country goes under you can bet that it will happen. A certain percentage of the population will voluntarily do that in order to have security.

What percentage is a good question.

I would not be surprised if Obama’s OWS gangs will be used in some capacity for that.

I’m not sure that the residents of New Orleans are a good sample of the U.S. population, but your point is taken.

I’m just wondering: who among the U.S. law enforcement community would do the confiscation on a national scale? What a dangerous job that would be.

As for the OWS people doing this, well, that ought to be interesting.

Anyway, using the words of a former U.S. Department of Defense Secretary, both of us know that we don’t know what would happen.

I don’t know what Obama’s purpose for his OWS gang is but they are there for a reason and that reason will become more clear in the months ahead.
