They are waiting for an excuse. All it takes is some insane maniac who opens fire in a mall or factory, and they’ll use that to justify taking guns from non-violent people and leaving them in the hands of violent criminals.

Massive swaths of the population not paying federal income tax. As you said, they can’t arrest everyone, etc. It’s the ultimate ‘defund’ movement.

OK, I've always structured my with holdings so that I never had to write a check to the gov on April 15th. Maybe it's time I rethink that, huh?

See the latest out of Australia. Perfect example.

You have to be careful using Australia as an example. Australia in not gun-free. You can still own guns in Australia if you meet certain criteria. That's why you have to fight ANY restrictive gun laws no matter what.

I just watched an old movie from 1966. IS PARIS BURNING? about the Nazi occupation of the city. Watch it and you will know why you NEVER give up your guns.

I recommend a Russian movie that came out last year called “Dear Comrades”, about a massacre against striking workers in the Soviet Union in 1962.

The only reason a government wants to take your guns is because they intend to do something to you that would make you shoot at them.

Like a gun grab.

I believe you are correct sir.
If these a$$ hats 🧢 try to do a major gun grab, I wonder if people will go Solzhenitsyn on them?

> I am surprised there isn’t a massive tax revolt movement at this point.

The "elites" already have countermeasures for that, your employer automagically withholds taxes from your paycheck ...

As we can see from other countries that are at the mercy of their governments.

I don't know the particulars, but there are Youtube videos out there of Australians shooting sniper rifles and other types of guns. They all appear to be living out of town.

Bolt guns and shotguns are extremely effective if applied in the right scenario. Guns like the AR15 are good general defensive weapons, but they definitely have their downfalls. Personally, I believe in the 1,000 defense. If you wait until the wolf is at your door, then it's too late.

If you have to plead for your freedom, it’s too late!

If it is time to buy them and bury them, it’s probably also time to put them to use.

“You have to be careful using Australia as an example. Australia in not gun-free. You can still own guns in Australia if you meet certain criteria.”

I keep a semi-automatic 7.62mm rifle with a loaded 20rd magazine next to my desk. Can they do that in Australia?

The founders meant for the 2nd Amendment to protect against tyranny of government as much as for personal protection. The last thing needed before a country can be dominated by socialist or communist is to disarm the public.

If you wait until you have to yank that gun from your desk, you waited too long.

Bury em deep.

That's part of the reason we're where we are. Too many people too chickenspit to use em, so they bury them or lose them in boating accidents. The Founders would be ashamed of us.
