In case you haven't noticed, we have already given up our freedom. Most of the inhabitants of this country ( I can't make myself call them "citizens") are only interested in the 21st century versions of bread and circuses. In another generation, and that is not a long time, guns will be as foreign and as feared by the masses as alien life forms. Resistance will be impossible.
It has worked and the young people growing up accept it, as if it had been the way for a long time. The constitution has been surplanted by regulations, courts, states ( granting drivers licenses to illegals, along with the right to vote); throwing huge numbers of voters interested in the largesse (socialistic government) into what was already balanced on its edge, with the result going mainly to the democrats.
Too bad for our side. What will it take to change the current course????????????????????????
