Hitler registered then confiscated guns. It works when you want absolute control. Progressive ideology is based on that principle along with "the end justifies the means." We are seeing this today in our FBI and DOJ!
Nikita Khrushchev warned us in the 50's. "We will get you through your schools." He was spot on.
A couple of months ago at work some employees were talking about how the First Amendment gave you the right to say what ever you want. I said "No it doesn't. Free speech is an inalienable right." Saw dear in the headlights.
Asked them if they knew the first 5 words of the 1st Amendment. "Congress shall pass no laws." Saw dear in the headlights. Explained to them that the purpose of the Constitution was to restrain the ruling elite. They didn't have a clue.
Sadly, I don't think it will be 100 years from now. The next gen will usher it in sooner.
“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”

One hopeful note, 4 of the 8 millennials I work with are pro-2nd Amendment.
Pray.
Yep. Schools don’t teach the founders of the Constitution, or the reason the founders came here — to escape the tyranny of a monarch.
All they know is Frozen and Martin Luther King and selfies.
The nation cannot stand with an immoral, ignorant body. I fear the end will come sooner than later. I still hope and pray it is after I am 6 feet under.
Every day I thank God that I was born in the 50s and not born yesterday. I would dread to think what America will be 75 years in the future. I would dread it.
