Look. Trying to confiscate Americans guns will erupt in pitched firefights, gun battles, between American civilians and government law officers

No, it won't.

Replace "government law officers" with "United Nations mercenaries" and you are onto something.

UN mercenaries from where? Usually, when the call goes out, thousands of shoeless Africans show up since their government gets paid by the head to ‘donate’ them to the cause. The US usually ends up outfitting them with everything.

Using U.N. enforcers would be an even more disastrous attempt.

I would think most Americans would have far less hesitation to pull the trigger against a foreigner than a U.S. jackboot.

If the UN is going to send in “mercenaries”, pray how are they getting here? In most UN operations, the U.S. military is the one that transports them because most of those “peacekeepers” have no way to transport themselves to the scene of the crime. If the U.S. military doesn’t go along with illegal orders like this, then the UN goons will have to take a tramp freighter. Also, who will transport their vehicles and do their logistics? The morons at the UN have no clue — they’re too busy salting money away in the Caymans or Swiss banks.
