The number of people that like most of the ideas in the comment section is frightening.

My world is a nice place to live, but it gets a little lonely.

You are not alone.

It would not surprise me in the least if a Civil war breaks out next year.

I sincerely hope you are wrong. Unfortunately, I fear you may be right.

Many of the items kind of look OK or sensible.

Like, enforce existing laws.

But the items are actually very vague, and will be interpreted for the maximum anti-gun effect.

Looks like a lot of people will be killed trying to disarm the civilian population.

You mean like Lexington and Concord a while back?

Mexican civilian disarmament was the other side of fast and furious genocide plan.

The Center for American Progress.

Do we start at the top, and work down, start at the bottom, and work, or begin at both ends and meet in the middle?

They can destroy the guns.

No problemo. Use grenades and mines.

In 1918, Finland's Socialist government attempted to hand the country over to the Communist *Union* of Socialist Republics, Russia having divested itself of its' Finniah duchy/colony. The Finns would not have it, and the eventual result was a four-month bloodletting known as the Finnish Civil War, the term the Communists/Socialists preferred.

Once most of the bloodletting was done, the butcher's bill was around 1.5% of the nation's population dead; in the American Civil War of 1861-1865, four years of battle left a percentage of about 2% of the male population dead, so it is clear that the Finns on both sides played the game very determinedly, indeed. Only about one death in six was what we would call a combat casualty; the rest were shot or bayonetted immediately after capture, died while being interrogated, or were executed or froze or starved to death in the fairly makeshift prison camps.

Assuming a current US population of around 320,000,000 you can figure the number of casualties in such an event in the USA, assuming, of course, that we quit after only 4 months. And, of course, in 1918 the primary weapons at hand were the rifle and bayonet, the bayonet useful for introducing new soldiers to the realities of their new profession by dispatching former enemy soldiers or their supporters who were deemed no longer needed as food or supply consumers.

Like these new soldiers, now decorated, trained and experienced soldiers. BTW, the decorations they are wearing appears to be the German Iron Cross, Second Class. I do not think they got them for penmanship or getting their library books back on time.

Seek out their families and kill them also.

If our rights under the Second Amendment are to be eliminated, so too are those of their family members under the corruption of blood clause of Article III, Section 3, Clause 2 suspended, eliminated and null and void.

"The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted."

*Howling Jake* Smith understood how such a counterinsurgency was to be conducted. If that is the game they wish to play, then that will be the way it is to be played.

I'm not sure that either the Mexicans at San Jacinto or the Finnish Reds executed at Vyborg would make much of a distinction; certainly they very quickly became unable to.

However, you might give this some consideration, in particular the chart toward the end/bottom.

And it is indeed certain that many Finns and many Americans share the trait that they do not like to leave a good and worthy job unfinished.

2016 is setting up to be rather sporty. I see WW3 igniting with Tet Two in Europe, and going from there.

If there is no electricity in November, there will be no elections.

And electrical grids are everybody’s primary strategic targets today.

Cool. No election, no legitimate government. And pretenders and fake *governmentals* can be shot or hanged on sight, and fake Hawaii birth certificates won't be enough to save them.
