Looking at the actions and decisions being made by the 20-40 year old crowd today, I don’t think there is enough true American believers left to stop the leftists...
If you look at the last 100 years, seem like the smart move on their part would be to not rile anyone up. Just keep things slowly moving down the cultural slope, with folks being fat, entertained, and apathetic.

I think this is true to a degree. Many of those you point out are simply arrant physical cowards. What would happen in heavily working class area of cities such as Chicago or even Boston would be interesting. Chicago PD is both PC and heavily black, These two groups might try to enforce some sort of search and seize act. The results would, I believe, be violent as white ethnic types despise the people who would try and seize their weapons and would prove to be more numerous than the police. Where it would go from there who knows? In the huge block of red counties which are heavily rural such a law would be a non starter and if an attempt by the Blues to enforce it would produce a rebellion in those areas. Again a very nasty scenario. Young men in rural areas of the South and Midwest and even the West are not the Millennial/Xer gutless weasels of the urban areas and the socalled educated classes. This sh*t have to get others to do their dirty work and there again is the potential for a multi-focal resistance with no traditional leadership or structure. Just a lot of younger men who work with their hands and who frequently are veterans of the interminable wars created by the same class that wants average Americans disarmed. This has the potential for something really protracted and pervasive.
You might be surprised. I've got four kids born between 1996 and 2004. They've all told me that their peers are about evenly split between left and right.
When I was their age in the early 70s, I didn't know a single peer who wasn't a liberal.
