If there is only one side commands the fire power.
The CIA Black Book of Predicts says we are in for a rough ride till 2030...
Hope so!I got a shtload of older ammo to recycle.
Yeah, the government.
Wouldn't be pretty.
Ok. I gotta ask, “What happens 2030?” Or thereafter
LOL! Pat, I love you, but are you going senile?

AOC says time’s up!
bttt
That totally depends on democrats!
That was the Burger Court--and Burger voted with the majority.
Nonpayment of taxes will be the thing that brings down the government.
The question is when we will have the second ‘shistol pot’ heard round the world?
Bloomberg wants it to be Virginians.
Hey, it could be worse?
The government doesn’t know which citizen owns which guns. They can only guess.
Government can pass all the confiscatory laws it wants. But rounding them up will require kicking in doors, and none of this talk of seizing one’s children or freezing bank accounts. Government is powerful but not omnipotent. This isn’t East Germany.
One solon has already given away the game when he said his goal is “to end the anonymous ownership of guns!”
The Richmond rally was a quiet victory. Babykiller Northam will threaten & pass confiscation.
And every cop in VA will really look forward to becoming a door kicker as every citizen regards him as the enemy (sheriffs & deputies excepted).
Commanded to risk his life by the little baldheaded nerd in Richmond.
Is mass civil disobedience our future? That or serfdom.
The choice is ours.
I am not at all religious, yet I firmly believe that we’re not dealing with just bad people. I believe a lot of what we are fighting is genuine evil. I don’t think that being religious is a prerequisite for acknowledging the existence of evil in this world.
Example of short list of people that I believe not simply bad people, which they are, but they are people who are evil:
Hillary Clinton
Chuck Schumer
Nancy Pelosi
The squad
Gavin Newsom
Andrew Coumo
Bernie Sanders, if you think that communism is evil, which it is.
I haven’t decided whether Elizabeth “lies all the time” is just super corrupt and disgusting, or a dyed-in-the-wool evil person. Either way she’s a disgusting human being.
“Violent crime was greater in America in the early 1990s. Urban riots were far more common in the 1960s. And there is nothing today comparable to the bloodletting of the 1861-65 War Between the States.”
The poorest people are now the most likely to be obese, and generally all age brackets and income levels are fatter than they used to be. And everyone is the most entertained they have ever been, while doing the least hard physical labor outdoors than in any era. Most are now used to being cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
I’m not saying it’s absolutely impossible with these conditions to have some sort of sustained and widespread civil unrest, but it’s very, very hard for me to imagine.
“Still, Americans seem to disagree with each other more and to dislike each other more than they have in the lifetime of most of us.”
I think that is the effect of social media and the 24 hour news cycle. It makes people that care about politics and culture vastly overestimate the number of people that care as much as they do about it. Anyone can look at the eligible voter turnout for the last 100+ years and realize there is a huge swath of Americans that don’t care, at least enough to deign to vote about it either way.
I think a solid real world indicator of any sort of possible civil unrest would be if the 2020 eligible voter turnout gets a 10-20% bump. That would put it around 70-80%.

Even in my State, where there’s no talk of confiscation, groups of citizens are gathering regularly. Every gathering sees new friends and neighbors.
Any 9mm, .45, .380 or 10mm you want to get rid of, I'm headed for the range this weekend to do some practice shooting. I'll take it off your hands. :-)
One 10 Million Patriots March on DC and problem solved for good..
