“When They Come For Your Guns, You Will Turn Them Over”

No, they may try to take them, but I will not turn them over !!

The way I see it is, if we lose our 2nd Amendment rights we will lose our 1st Amendment freedom of speech, our right to Vote and all we value in life.

If we lose all of our freedoms without a fight, then I must ask; why did we keep and bear arms in the first place?

“The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”

By accepting that felons, having served their sentence, may be barred from arms or voting you have already lost these rights — just, perhaps, not yet.
(IOW, all they need to do is slap you with felon charges, and then your fellow-citizens will deprive you of rights for them even after you've served your sentence.)
