When you boil it down, this decision will determine whether or not we own our money or property.

If the government can mandate what you can buy, it surely can mandate what you can't buy.

One day the government may come to my house and tell me to buy a gun and a Bible. Next day the government may come to may house and tell me to buy a Chevy Volt, and a particular brand of condoms. And when you don't buy what the government tells you...

I won't go to the government's camps without bringing death and destruction with me.

We own neither. This will just make it permanent.

There was a time gov't did tell white men of a certain age (18-45) to buy a gun. It was the Militia Act of 1792. Militias are a special case since they're specifically constitutional.
