“Be mighty tough to do to those that don’t deal with banks. Try again.”
That’s just the start. Hope you don’t mind your property being seized. After all, all it takes are some laws (similar to asset forfeiture). And don’t worry, the locals (sheriffs and state police) will help the feds, as they already have their firearms and don’t want the same ‘enforcement mechanisms’ directed against them.
The possible scenarios are endless which if mulled over leads to fear and paranoia. Could care less what some faceless moron can or can’t do. These dips only think they’re in control when in actuality God is in total control. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. It’s really that simple.
I’m afraid you are correct. My concern is that many people are going to be blindsided by actions that the government will take. In Nazi Germany, it wasn’t necessary at all for the police to go door to door confiscating weapons. They terrorized a handful of people—some of them with arbitrary arrests followed by releases. And the arbitrariness was made known. The message was “we can come after you for anything.” This caused a reign of terror. Also, many people eventually became so frightened that the police would come knocking at their doors that they dumped their ammunition and weapons in a local river. Unfortunately, terror is almost as contagious as a virus. And it’s no coincidence that this administration wants to implement warrantless searches. Getting a warrant means the police have “probable cause.” No warrant means probable cause doesn’t need to be established. Searches could become “mental health checks.”
A person becoming angry because they are claiming that they are fine can easily be mistaken for a “psychotic fit of rage.” People can simply get angry because someone is invalidating them or violating their boundaries. Cops don’t know the difference. And many mental health professionals don’t know the difference either. Believe me, most people don’t understand anger and think that it is dysfunctional. If that’s the case, Jesus was showing how dysfunctional He was when he kicked the money changers out of the Temple, chasing them with whips.
