A LOT of people and a LOT of guns CAN be taken if done incrementally.

A few figures to ease your mind.

Approx. 120 million Americans own guns. They own approx. 400+ million firearms. It would require teams of 15-20 officers/agents per raid in order to go door to door seizing firearms. Each raid would take at least two hours not including paperwork after the fact.

With the current number of Federal, state and local cops who do arrests, if every one of them were put to work on gun raids, it would take a hundred years or more to confiscate them all.

Meanwhile, Americans are buying guns faster than they could confiscate them ...

That’s a lot of ####ig gund!!! :)

But how’s about setting up militia meeting points or meeting points in general NOW.

Hell, I’m just a lowly Staten Island guy and I’ve got two go to points just in case.

Granted, they are both from nearby states lol

And they wouldn't be able to do it quietly and on the down-low either ... eventually, the word's going to get out that this is happening and people will begin fighting back. Then there are going to be a whole lot less of them going out to do arrests ...

That is a poor alternative. What about the battleground of ideas and the marketplace of philosophies? Can’t we overcome them in the public discourse? And reverse or stem decades of neo-Marxist ideologies on campus? We need to find other ways to engage them...
