It does not seem like such a tall order to take out that one individual; if we do so, does anyone step in to take his place, or does his dream die?
I believe that there is much more to this regime than any one individual. There is a malignant bureaucracy that has grown nearly 30% in the last 18 months and they are choosing not to answer to Congress or the Courts. There is much they have to account for. There is good reason for us to distrust and fear them and them to fear us.
A few registered rifles will have no impact on this government, but it might be a foundation for confiscation. It will be the power of the people and their influence on their representatives if we have a peaceful solution. Otherwise it will be the power of the people.
