The disarming of America (mega-barf, fascism is here)

What Danny-boy needs is a date with a rope and a lamp post.

[zeugma]

In a strange way I would welcome this law. Cuts through all of the BS I’m getting tired of the ‘dance’. Come try to take mine/ours and let’s see whose is the last side standing!

You and me both. I'd prefer a straight-up fight to all this sneaking around. 

[Noumenon]

By the time it comes to that, don’t wait for them to come to you. Hunt down the ones who sent them. It’ll be a target-rich environment.

[Bluesguy]

Maybe but as fat and comfy as Americans are, I doubt that would happen on a large scale. After a few of these incidents happen, the media will be quick to make the gubbermint thugs look like martyrs and the patriots will get painted like vermin. Make no mistake, once public sentiment turns enough against guns, that Washington feels it can get away with this or Congress and the POTUS totally caves in to UN control, this will happen and it will be over.

[Motherhood IS a career]

I only read the excerpt, but it sounds an awful lot like the Holocaust. Well... with a few (thousand, double-barreled) exceptions.

Seems like this is EXACTLY the kind of reason we have the Second Ammendment.

Good luck trying!

[Noumenon]

People like the Danster here have security people you will have to get past.

No security team can maintain a 300 yard perimeter forever. That's all I'd need to ring Dan's gong, even with iron sights. And a real rifleman can do much better than that.

[Rick.Donaldson]

I don’t care if he is “trying to illustrate” or not. Over the years, the Left Wing has called ME a NAZI.

I’m not. This guy IS and he’s a leftist. I just wrong the Head Editor a scathing letter about this kook, and basically told him Americans will NEVER stand for people like that. HE IS a Hitler hiding behind a Pen.

[marvlus]

That's the same thing they were saying in Australia and Canada.....three weeks was all it took.

Yeah, well we're not Canada or Australia, we are still the U.S. I still have faith in my fellow conservatives.

[lakeman]

Unintended consequences

if you haven’t read it do so.

[Rick.Donaldson]

I wrote a long letter to the Editor-in-Chief at that place, telling them to pound sand basically. (Not really, but I told him that given the fact there are 280-something million armed Americans, that makes US the majority.)

[91B]

Bump to what you said-”the second amendment isn’t any more about hunting than the first is about playing scrabble” (I can’t remember who said it, but I love that quote).

[Atlas Sneezed]

You think several dozen IRA or ETA bombers made life tough in the UK and Spain (for the enforcers they opposed, mostly)?

Just wait until a plan like this is implemented in the USA.

[TC Rider]

Good luck finding enough JBTs to implement this. Most of the cops I know and shoot with would never go along with this. Besides, are they going to break down the doors of homes where families are at work and school?

Once an area is ‘swept clean’ how does Dan propose to keep the guns from flowing back in again?

This was borderline satire, but I believe Dan is serious, and whacked.

What date is this suppose to be or is it an April fool joke?

[Rick.Donaldson]

Yeah, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND every one READ “Unintended Consequences”. If these folks were to have their way, there WOULD be a very bloody civil war. Yes, I WOULD fight. So would my sons and daughters, my wife, brothers and sisters. All of us are armed, all of us stand up for the Constitution.

But, the fact is, the guy was right about one thing, it won’t come to that because “Americans won’t do it”.

[USNBandit]

Over at packing.org there is a guy asking about CCW classes in Northern Va.

Do they have CCW classes at the NRA HQ? The calendar for the range shows a CCW course on every other Tuesday.

[usapatriot28]

For most of this article I assumed he was writing in the style of “A Modest Proposal”, then I got to the end. Either Mr. Simpson didn’t finish the article or he is actually serious. The whole block-by-block random sweeps sounds very Nazi-esk. Scary!

[Rick.Donaldson]

I just wrong the Head Editor

I just WROTE the Head Editor. Damn... I must have my mind wrapped around this whole thing being WRONG, huh?

[Atlas Sneezed]

”the second amendment isn’t any more about hunting than the first is about playing scrabble” (I can’t remember who said it, but I love that quote).

I recall reading it in John Ross’ “Unintended Consequences.”

Kind of like Waco. (But Janet Reno "took responsibility" for it.)
