There is currently a lot of attention being paid to new Democrat-proposed gun control laws, particularly House Bill 127, which would require national registration and licensing of all firearms, would ban broad categories of semi-automatic weapons, ban most ammunition magazines, and so on. One of the most frequent replies to these proposed laws is that there are not enough local or federal SWAT Team door-kickers to go house to house on gun confiscation raids, and if they tried, they would 1. soon run out of door-kickers and 2. instigate Civil War Two.
But in the modern digital era, I believe that Team Tyranny won’t have to do much door-to-door gun confiscation. I think that a few show-piece gun confiscation raids using overwhelming force at 4AM (that are designed for network TV audiences) will be sufficient. Instead, they’ll just send citizens a notice by text, email and registered snail-mail that they already know what newly-illegal guns they possess. This list will be based on AI programs scraping and data-mining your social media history, credit card purchases, and all past FFL sales records, which surely will be collected as part of the new law.
All of this information will be knitted together much the way that the IRS does business. I borrowed this paradigm from “Old Curmudgeon” on a Free Republic thread: “Have you noticed how the IRS manages to enforce the tax laws? Every taxable transaction is documented by multiple parties so that one party’s failure to report will be revealed by the another party’s paperwork. Then the person who violated the tax law is made an example of, a horrible example, causing reasonable people to be very afraid of the IRS. They will use a similar method to end gun ownership.”
And don’t think for a minute that they won’t get all the gun sales records, once they pass their “Emergency Measures To Prevent Domestic Terrorism Act.”
So how will they plan to separate you from your now-illegal guns? You’ll be notified that next Thursday at 9AM is your designated time to appear at a certain address, perhaps your local police station, or perhaps a big-box store parking lot, with said newly-illegal firearms and ammo magazines. Current Covid vaccine distribution gives them a model for this new system. Instead of going to get a Covid shot, you’ll be going to turn in the newly banned guns on the list.
Many people will refuse to do so. A week later, they will be totally disappeared from social media. Digitally disappeared. This makes it hard to complain about your treatment.
If you send an email about your situation to your local news station, they will automatically get a warning email just ahead of yours, or your email will be contained inside of a red flashing “warning box.” This is how the CCP keeps the comrades in line in Communist China. ChiCom programmers are already working with silicon valley to get Team Tyranny, both government and private sector, up to speed on these protocols.
You’ll get more official warnings to turn in the newly illegal guns that they know you have. Serial numbers won’t matter much, they’ll have your own prior social media “confessions,” along with those proud pictures you posted at the range, along with your credit card history, etc. You bought ten P-Mags, a chest rig, a “drop-in” trigger and a new buffer spring? They know you have an AR. And you can assume that the sales records of FFL dealers will all be collected under the new “emergency” gun control law.
You still won’t comply? You’re doxed at work. Your company “can’t take the risk” of employing you after they get secret back-channel warnings from the DHS. You and your wife the school teacher or nurse will be unemployed. How are you going to pay your mortgage? Your kids’ tuition bill? Your car payment? Again, as a DHS-suspected “domestic terror threat” you can’t get the local news to touch the story.
Next step: your ATM card is frozen. Then your credit cards. Then your bank drops you. Still a hard case? Your electricity arrives intermittently. Then it stops altogether. Then your water is cut off. The local news will still not touch your story, since they have been warned about the dangerous domestic terror threat from people like you.
Team Tyranny won’t need to conduct many door-to-door gun raids. They’ll just lock you inside a digital gulag in your own house.
And if you freak out in anger and rage and try to get revenge, who will you go after? Washington DC is now behind a razor-wire-topped wall guarded by thousands of troops, so forget that. Your local police chief? Your mayor? Who do you go after? If you do target them, then you are a domestic terrorist, and they’ll kill you, or at least arrest you and send you to a real prison. (The local gun-collection points might become a sporadic random target, but they will be very well guarded by SWAT counter-snipers etc.)
These are just some thoughts of mine about how the new gun bans might be rolled out and enforced. Do I know for a fact that this is how Team Tyranny will enforce an American gun ban? No. But it’s worth considering, at least more than just saying “they don’t have enough door kickers!”
They won’t need many door kickers. The Digital Gulag might be enough.
I spoke about this on Infowars last Thursday:

Anything! See I still have my guns....and just by coincidence several thousands like me see what they are doing to me, and are also being treated the same way, lots of them former military. Then others who are perpetual sheep see whats happening to me and they and realize they will be next if they don't joint and don't make a stand. Its called “The Spartacus Syndrome”, except we wont need Silacian Pirates to take us away to avoid the military here, and by the time they realize that the people Alzheimer's Joe sent to eradicate are just like them, and in some cases served with them, and they will have to register their weapons to defend their families, then they switch sides, and old Joe will have to build a bigger fence.
I didn’t read much of it, but only because Matt has discussed this notion repeatedly on his Youtube videos with Ferfal (the Modern Survivalist).
If you refuse to register — I fully intend not to register — you could wind up with your bank card pulled, for example. Thus, it is good, while you can, to get things like bitcoin, silver and gold. As ammo is durable, and most of it currently sells for around a buck a round, it can make perfectly good currency as well.
Also, get lots of food and other preps to help ride out your digital enslavement with bartering and survival.
I’m going to go ahead and skim the article, as there are probably things I haven’t thought of.
PING!
Well, I’m glad I went back and read it. Definitely more things than I though of.
If I didn’t know who Matt was, this article would scream to me, “Just give up.”
Well, I’m not giving up. Nobody else should, either. If only a few people resist, they will be destroyed. If everybody resists, and the government goes through with such a nefarious scheme, THEY will risk being destroyed via lack of revenues following the economic collapse resulting from the isolation of 80 million or so Americans.
This is a typical result of playing Defense only.
We have doors to knock on ourselves.
Roger that. Even the unknown unknowns...
“This is a typical result of playing Defense only.
WE HAVE DOORS TO KNOCK ON OURSELVES.”
THIS X100
The 2nd Amendment would have to be abolished for this crap to go down. Can’t see that happening during my life, but several generations from now, probably so.
Was fortunate to have lived in America when it was not a police state. Today’s youth will never know what they missed out on.
“Don’t really need “credit card companies, banks, utilities...”
Work away from these.”
I guess you can learn Spanish and get paid in cash for working and then buy everything that way, living as a non-citizen.
Is that your plan? If not, what is your plan?
There are also civil remedies that would come into play, as soon as the first person who doesn't actually own a prohibited firearm gets persecuted for owning one.
Canada tried to register all long guns. Nobody complied. They eventually gave up. If it were this easy, Canada, whose people are comparatively obedient and whose government is repressive compared to ours, would have forced compliance by doing this. They didn't even try.
Sheila Nutcase Jackson Lee's insane bills aren't going to pass anyway.
Spartacus and his homies didn't have well paying jobs, home mortgages, car payments, two kids in college, two in high school with soccer practices on weekends and cheer leading practice after school...........
When the irag war started a lot of civilans were murdered by thier own neighbors. The squealers, rats, government informants - basiclly the kens and karens were killed not by coalition forces but by the people they had been tormenting when there was a government. My point. If this happens as the article says it will, a few people wont wait until they are cometwly electronically cut off before the blood starts running in the street. What does a man have to lose when hes got nothing left but his rifle and a few rounds of ammunition? Just saying, a few arent going to go quietly..
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? After all, you knew ahead of time that those bluecaps were out at night for no good purpose. And you could be sure ahead of time that you’d be cracking the skull of a cutthroat.”
― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
“It’s better to consider all the threats before they arrive.”
Exactly. Running war game scenarios on FR is a good exercise to imagine responses to fed tyranny.

This is the problem.
In my constitution, gun loving circle of family and friends, we have a
pretty cush life. Its a great life. Nice large house with a good retirement
and vacations every year. Even during this COVID “lockdown”. Ill go
ahead and speak for my BIL. He would turn in his weapons. No doubt
in my mind. He would choose his cush life. My really good friends?
They have very good lives. I really don’t know what they would do if the
rubber finally hit the pavemement. Me? Ive posted before, I draw the
line at my guns. Thats my hill. I hope millions of other gun owners
choose this hill as their last stand.
All of the people in government that support this, those running collection centers, maintaining databases have to sleep 8 hours a day and they have kids and spouses.
I would think that attacking and hacking these databases would be a prime target.
You make a excellent point. Every legal purchase I’ve made through a gun shop, online store, regardless of a pistol or long gun required paper work filled out. Where that goes, who knows?
However, the gangbangers, thugs, Obama’s sons, call that what you will, won’t dare fill out any forms.
So if this really were to happen, the law abiding citizen would become cannon fodder for the rest. Maybe that’s actually be part of the Marxists plan.
Step one of whatever plan I may or may not have is never talking details over the interwebs.
You're an American - forward-thinking and innovation is in your DNA.
Your mind is your best asset.
You don't need to work within their system.
I read that one is coming here. I read that they are already using it, or variations of it in Communist China.
