Yes. Emphatically.
Yeah, like 200+ years.
Indeed, widespread civil disobedience will be the test for survival of the nation.
If the president doesn’t respect the law, people are beginning to ask themselves “why the hell should I?”
Both Obama and Holder have stated publicly that they will not enforce certain laws.
Sheeeese, we’re becoming a land of scofflaws.
Anti-gun laws will be treated the same way Gov. Brown treated Prop. 8, or the way Obama treated DOMA. Brown/Bama set the standard for treating laws they don’t like.
Simply Ignore them.
Just remember guys/girls Demorats/Rino’s running for reelection in 2014 we have to hold their feet to the fire if we hope to change things. I’m not giving up my AR for nobody.
Well our local sheriff, here in Alabama, is a dimwit. I have known him since we were kids. He is an big hunger. Goes to Alaska and such places too hunt. But, I can guarantee you, if he could take all our guns, he would. We have had words over it and he ain’t happy with what people around here are telling him. He wants our guns, so he can kiss Obama’s butt (he has been to the WH and met with Obama recently with other sheriffs, etc.) and he wants to toe the party line. Mostly, he is a lying hypocrite who lies to cover his lies. I don’t vote for him. I hope this election, since the entire county government and most of Alabama’s government is republican, we can get rid of his lying behind.
There is another factor in the issue that has emerged over the last 5 years.
Guns, especially quality guns or particular types of guns, are increasing in value, and are therefore an appreciating asset in the hands of their owners.
This creates an incentive on the part of the owner to hold onto his assets and protect them. It makes government one stink more odious than before, and inclines the people to be non-compliant.
All of this suggests that government no longer serves the people, and is no longer neutral toward the people.
Resistance to a enemy of the constitution is not “disobedience”, it is civic duty.
Well, the nation survived 15 years of widespread civil disobedience while the 18th amendment was in effect, and it was finally ended legally. I’m hopeful that we will get through this too.
1 Disarm your enemy.
2 Enslave your enemy.
Deny. Defy. Do Not Comply.
Instead of taking this approach, let us start discussing how a Constitutional Convention would repair the relationship between the people and the government. Even the discussion will drive the left (er, now “progressive”) nuts because it is a far greater threat to their power and their agenda than anyone in the “molon labe” crowd would ever be.

Would the well-trained sheep stop baaaing and assert their rights?
I know folks behind enemy lines in NY. They have no plans on complying. The form of their disobedience is kinda up to the State at this point.
I’m in Mn. They pass this crap here... My “disobedience” may be a bit more active than they’d like.

Non-violent civil disobedience is the answer ... liberal elites don't have enough jails to house the half of American citizens who own guns - OR believe in the Constitution OR both... And if they think they do, let them try...
