I didn't read where the massacres of the confiscators would make the gubmint impotent in about a week. I believe in 1 city block of my neighborhood, there would probably be more guns than the confiscators have. To disarm my town of about 2500, the gubmint would have to bring in at least 5000 with armor. I'm just not sure they want 10-12-Waco's a week. We only have 150k in Iraq, so even double that with police and the like, you still come up short of about 100 million owners.

They also forget that the locals know who and where the gun grabbers are. We know where their families are. If they are having trouble disarming Iraq, I think they would have more here.

I made the statement about knowing who the gungrabers were and where their families live when Klintoon was prez and a Freeper said "That wasn't very nice to say". If you come after me and mine, it won't be free for you. A few free militia trials and executions for treason and I think they will lose their desire for my guns. Most police and chiefs in Texas don't fear the citizens with guns. I think there will be more people than they realize that took their oath of office seriously about defending the Constitution. My guess is the country would come apart at the seams and it would end in a few days when the folly of their actions were realized. If not, we will just eliminate the Dems and get the country back.

This is the ULTIMATE reason for the 2nd Amendment in the first place. The founders didn't mention hunters, or even home invaders, but they realized a armed citizenry would never allow the country to be overturned by tyrants. ALL of our freedoms come from the 2nd Amendment. Without the right to protect ourselves, we have NO freedom. If somehow they convinced enough people to volunteer to give up their guns, then maybe it would be possible. Just think about Australia or Briton right now. They all feel comfy without any protection, but sooner or later the EU or the government will do something they won't like. They have NO recourse. The military would have to have a coup to stop it. What are the odds?

The marxists win Congress and this is what we get. Well, it didn’t take long. To hear them talking out there, marxist health care is a fait accompli. Global warming money transfers are a done deal. And now, THIS.

Evidently, this guy thinks he can write such Orwellian, treasonous stuff because he, like most of the left, is now emboldened by that stupid election.

I can think of fifty ways, just off the top of my head, why his scenarios are abjectly ludicrous. I will name just one: the Indian reservations. There is no way on earth for the government to search and seize in those places. Too many layers of overlapping sovereignty. And so, within this gun-free country (assuming the other 49 impossibilities of national confiscation were found wanting), would exist nation after nation of gun-rich Indian tribes, and a black market that would make tax-free cigarettes and gaming-law exceptions seem like penny-ante poker.
