There’s something deeply gratifying in reading this piece. I doubt it happens. Hoping it doesn’t, but I think there are enough people who enjoy liberty that they won’t give it up without vengeance.
I doubt it happens also. In fact, I KNOW it won’t happen.
What WILL happen, though, will precisely follow the arc of
all those “issues” which are designed to be polarizing, and play out in the public arena attended by the usual unilluminating oversimplified expressions of the US vs. THEM
positions: what we’ll get is a tiresome, and virtually endlessly exhausting series of proposals, threats, intimidation, demagoguery, all in the service of winning hearts and minds for your particular point of view-—it will be a charade, with the RKBA side of the issue always on the defensive and having to re-state the same positions they’ve been putting forth since time immemorial.Ultimately , the gun-grabbers, led by the hard-liners on the Left, will calibrate the precise guidelines for any new legislation with the overall intention to get legal gun owners crazy with fear and apprehension over the prospect of confiscation
(compensated of course by “buybacks”), and push them into
the kind of position that will make them look like outcast militia-types, stockpiling weapons and making plans to overthrow the government. NOBODY SHOULD TAKE THIS BAIT!
