Anyone who waits for their weapons to be confiscated, has waited too long to successfully use them.
All the talk on FR about “lost them in a boating accident” rather misses the point of why you have them to begin with.
I’m old enough to not care about dying. So if they come to my house trying to take my gold, you will have to take my lead first.
Daddy...where did you learn how to make claymores?
Then why are we still fighting in Afghanistan. Seems to me we should have walked over those guys.
This would be a spectacular event. Hell people shoot at LEO and other officials for a lot less.
“Many cities and towns now own tanks, armed personnel carriers, even attack helicopters, and almost all are outfitted with military weapons not available to the general public.”
Like I’ve heard said more than once: “You gotta get out of the tank to take a crap sometime.”
Why, no... I won't.
I’m already on all the lists, old, sick, no offspring, local shrinks know me, country of my youth disappeared years ago, why would I?
There ain't no such thing, and yes, if the dem statists demanded their guns, the neo-con statists would surrender without a fight no doubt.
I realised that this guy was a know nothing Left wing moron when he made the stupid comment about Neo-cons.I didn’t realise that you had to be a Neo-Con to believe in the Constitution.
I sure would hate to have this clown representing me in court.He should surrender his license to practice law.
Another story from someone who knows nothing about firearms.
If you buy an 80% receiver (usually an AR style) or a flat to bend yourself (usually an AK), there is no record of anything. The law specifically allows for building your own guns. The ATF does not consider an unfinished (lower) receiver (the only part recorded) a firearm.
The author is correct in that a conventional battle with police or armed forces is a loser for civilians, especially on the civilians’ front doorsteps.
What the author fails to point out is that there are more effective alternatives to standoffs and conventional battles.
No, I will not-most of my family served in the military, so I was brought up to not be afraid to fight and die, if necessary...
I’ve often said we’ve passed or are approaching the point of no return. However, incidents like Ukraine and Egypt make me think we’re nowhere near the point of no return. The people of Iran were on the brink of overthrowing their government without any guns. Even if 99.9% of American gun owners submit, that leaves over 2,000,000 angry gun owners. What could 2,000,000 dedicated patriots do? Nothing if the government threw its full force into crushing them. But they couldn’t, and even if they tried 2,000,000 would turn into 20,000,000 over night.
No, but those Marines took an oath to uphold the Constitution, and most of them are smart enough to know when their orders countervene the Constitution - don't tell the leftists.
Ever heard of asymmetrical warfare, Jim?

No of course not, that would be foolish, 1st rule of Warfare, YOU pick the time and place to fight the battle... Me and other gun owners might very well make a mental note of which local law enforcement are helping in these raids on our fellow gun owners and are obeying unconstitutional orders and pay them a "visit" at their homes, while they are having a nice quiet movie night with their families. And those well armed marines..., have to take off that body armor off and sit down to eat or sleep sometime, perhaps a "visit" while are group are eating at the local buffet and relaxing after a raid?
They could never get away with a USA wide forced confiscation. I don’t believe the military would stand for it. At least the grand majority.
My neighborhood homeowner’s association doesn’t allow tanks or MRAPs in the subdivision.
The HOA is pretty darn militant...
