So where are all those people who declared, “this far and no further,” those who flatly stated “one more infringement and the shooting will start,” and those who pound their chests and cry “MOLON LABE.”

Ten and twenty years ago, people were saying the same things. And the tyranny keeps increasing while the same people keep on repeating “not one step more!”

I’ve heard it all so many times and for so long, that I no longer believe anybody who claims they will resist, fight back, start shooting, or what have you. We are all frogs in the pot ready to jump out when it gets too hot. But each time the heat gets turned up, it’s only just a tiny bit warmer. Not enough to get too excited.

And if someone actually does feel the line has been crossed and they do something about it? They will be vilified in the press. Neighbors, Pastors, Police and the local government will all be put on air talking about what a crazy man he was, or how he was such an extremist, or how he was plotting to overthrow the government. And all the other frogs will be saying, “that guy was just a nut job. But if the government goes just one more step into tyranny, we’ll all be out there, shoulder-to-shoulder.”

Wake up, people. Our country was lost a long time ago. Some people just don’t want to admit it yet.

First recent step. 2 recall petitions are underway in Colorado.

And from what I have read, CA is the only state that routinely confiscates weapons, the only one with registration.

There will be resistance to this at the State level. Legislation is in the works now in many states. Many states will openly defy any registration scheme the Feds attempt.

This is not over yet.

Texas as a state will not go for this. Will not happen.

Nor will most of the South.

Too many rednecks, oilies, hunters, farmers and those who choose to live outside the cities.

The left has been planning this a long time and they think there time is now. I contend it is not and this effort will fail. And the cost in the next election will remind them of the previous one.

FUBO!

Bingo! Exactly! I am fully convinced we have lost our will to stand up for ourselves any longer because it’s too inconvenient- might miss an episonde of oprah whiel slugging down our beer bought with food stamps or something- can’t let that happen-
