[Flashback] The Democrats Will Never Confiscate Your Guns. Instead, You’ll Hand them Over
All Outdoor .com ^ | August 31, 2016 | Bill J

Posted on 08/31/2019 5:41:10 PM PDT by Boomer

I see and hear a lot of talk about how a national gun registration and/or confiscation would be the trigger that would spark a second American Revolution, as patriots rise up to resist the jackbooted thugs who are going door-to-door taking away people’s arms.

I have bad news for everyone who’s waiting for national registration or a mass confiscation so they can get their armed rebellion on: a national database of gun owners already exists, and a national confiscation effort will never happen. Ever. Instead, you’ll hand over your firearms peacefully. All of them, even the ones you paid cash for to some random guy on Armslist in the dead of night.

Maybe.

Or... Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn “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.”

“..I think the intention of the author was to wake people up to the possibility...”

I think you are correct. But the answer remains the same, either way.

Some people WILL give them up to avoid confrontation. Its natural.

But those of us who know that THAT DAY is the day those guns are for won’t.

When it comes to THAT day, every Citizen has an instant decision to make.

There are those who wish to force their will on us... and there are those of us who NOT have that will forced on us.

That’s the long and short of it.

Agreed plus millions of gun owners like me bought them decades ago and have not filled out one single federal form because it was not long ago that you did not have to.

Moreover I don’t use FB or any social media and I NEVER chat about guns on email and almost never with anyone face to face.

NSA is capable of sucking up huge amounts of data. But, as one writer once said in an article I read ….”it’s so much that it would be like dipping water out of Lake Superior with a teaspoon to effectively use it because at some point a human has to get in the loop. Meaning, the NSA computers are not going to drive over to your house and pick up your guns. With 300 million guns out there picking them up is literally impossible. And, many of them will require a gunfight.

Right.... Would that be the same equipment the military used to scan every house in Afghanistan and totally disarm the Taliban?

It has always been the few brave souls fighting for the many who cannot or will not.

The tree of liberty is getting mighty thirsty.

Billj has no imagination. He sees things happening in a certain way with a certain result. I wonder...what or who, in such a scenario, does he imagine would be the target of righteous wrath? Does he see only small men with small concerns?

To which I respond:

This duty is higher than one's own personal survival or selfish interest. It may in fact require the sacrifice of one's own life. That is why the Declaration concludes with these noble words: "We pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor." Honor and duty are superior to rights and self-interest.

Such men exist. Such men have always existed.

They want the guns because they want to operate a gulag. Whose life has any value then?

If we're going to die anyway...

If we're going to die anyway...

That's pretty much my attitude too and by what I've read here and many other places; we are by no means alone in that way of thinking.

To back up one step and see it through the eyes of Bill J.; it would also mean losing everything before dying (or surviving) a civil or new revolutionary war with a tyrannical government hell bent on making subjects out of its citizens.

This is the problem with idiots who get elected then think it's their right to tell us what to do. It isn't. Their job is to do what we mandate them to do. Their job is to work for us; not lord over us. Look at the despicable Jihad Squad for instance. The arrogance of those puny nothings to believe they can tell us what we have to do! Heck; all dems are like that now. Hell bent on being our rulers instead of our elected public servants.

I suspect you may not have ever been a street cop. Find one and ask him what his life will be like when he is handed a list of 10 gun owners at briefing that he is supposed to visit that day and collect all the guns.

Your assertion is laughable.

I agree wholeheartly.
Go ahead and give me nothing to live for and nothing to lose.
That, my friend, should scare the crap out of any sane person.

George Patton said: "I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor, dumb bastard die for his country."

We live in a very connected, very complex world. Groceries arrive daily to every supermarket in the country. Countless millions of people, including those who detest the Second Amendment, are dependent upon those deliveries to avoid starvation.

During the L.A. riots a truck driver was dragged from his truck and seriously wounded by a brick wielding criminal. I'm sure he didn't complete his delivery that day.

Life without electrical power is almost unthinkable today. We rely upon a complex system of generating plants and power distribution systems to deliver that power. When a car hits a power pole in my area, it takes about forty-five minutes to restore power. Fortunately for the consumer the number of such incidents is low. During severe storms, several poles can fail and the power might be out for days.

Before confiscating guns the government would need to harden our various product delivery systems in order to avoid a retaliatory backlash that might inconvenience a lot of people.
