I wonder where they came up with the 350 million firearms number?

It’s not mindless tradition - it is that we understand that we have the right to self defense, both from individual criminals and from a Totalitarian government. And a sign of a government headed to Totalitarianism is the desire to disarm the populace.

One commentor thinks the police won’t come for our guns. Oh yes they will. Or the military. That’s more complicated.

“The prospect of confiscation—as much as it might, theoretically, reduce drastically or even eliminate gun crime altogether—is simply impossible in the United States.”

A world without gun crime is not necessarily a better world.

In an unarmed world, thugs can count on numbers, size, or training to conduct home invasions of occupied homes, in the certainty that they are safe, and they do exactly that in disarmed liberal nations. In an armed America, thugs can never be sure whether an old man or a tiny woman can take them down permanently. We don't have a lot of home invasions with occupied homes. God bless Samuel Colt and the rest of America's gun makers!

I love those articles recently in the news about many in Europe now complaining that they have few weapons with which to defend themselves from the invasion of muslims that’s going on there because they “don’t have a 2nd Amendment like in America.” Gun confiscation will be the libs “reason to be” gong forward. Heaven help us if Hillary gets in the WH.

A line given to me by a wise man that is often appropriate for these sorts of comparisons between the U.S. and Australia, and also for Canada is the following:

“You have to uderstand, they never had a revolution.”

It makes a difference in the mindset.

Don’t think for a second that the police and yes, the military, won’t come for gun confiscation if they’re ordered.

Dot-mil is paid by dot-gov. Dot-mil will ALWAYS obey Dot-gov.

Kent State. The Bonus Army. The Whiskey Rebellion. The Civil War.

Yeah, they’ll do it.

People need to be less afraid of saying this “out loud”.

Attempted gun confiscation is a declaration of war on the citizens of America.

They’ll get their civil war all right. Just try to confiscate MY guns. I predict a very large kill ratio in favor of the citizens.

If our government is indeed supposed to be “Of the People, For the People and By the People, then WE The People of the United States are not about to tolerate the notion of gun confiscation for one minute, and any attempt by the federal jackboots to take our guns WILL be result not our reaching for the soap box, or the ballot box, but for the AMMO box.

Simple as that.

I think it’s still understood even by the evilest of the stupid; try massive gun confiscation and it will be on. At that time assets will be preserved and liabilities will be eliminated. And one understands whether they will be viewed as an asset or a liability.

The scenario has been projected enough for the understanding to be there.

Much of the US does not have actual 2A rights, they have privileges doled out at the discretion of the ruling class.
Whether and to what extent we have confiscations is directly related to how blue the country becomes.

Liberals have succeeded in deluding themselves about gun ownership and the basic mind set behind what gun owners feel and know about the Constitution and about individual autonomy in the United States.

The disconnect Liberals display on this issue is greater all the time.

Like other issues they presume to comprehend... Liberals’ original and basic understanding is flawed to the point that nothing they think, say or propose, as a result is thinkable or workable.... it is ALL generated by a baseless, infantile and rabid level of emotion ... and it never gets past EMOTION.

EMOTION stunts objectivity ...it's the reason that children, drunks and mentally challenged people are not be regarded as competent or reliable.
