Extension of the AWB is disgusting, but it isn't the end of the world. Worth fighting, but not worth self-destructing and allowing far more onerous restrictions and the political mechanisms for such to get enacted because one decided to throw a temper tantrum.

Just curious, and sincere, where do you think the line in the sand should be drawn, and what do you plan on having to arm yourself with as you stand immediately behind it?

Is there no single issue that would cause to to say "ENOUGH"? In all honesty, this issue is the one that does it for me.

Wise generals almost never draw 'a line in the sand', unless they are facing total destruction or have total superiority. Battles are fought, wars are fluid, and almost every great general has had to retreat at times. The object is to win the war, not obliterate your ability to do so over a single battle, except in rare instances. Sorry, but IMHO the AWB is not the end of the world. Disgusting, but not anywhere close to confiscation, and not stopping the expansion of conceal carry(which is perhaps the best measure for defeating gun control.)

As much as I despise the AWB and those who vote for it, I've often thought about where I would draw that 'line in the sand'.

As far as voting goes, passage of the AWB may just cross my line. But the real 'line in the sand' is, when do we stop trying to work within the system? When do we just stop participating in this charade and make a stand?

For me, that would be when ANYONE comes to my door telling me that I must turn in ANY gun that I own, guns that I bought legally and own legally. I am not going to speculate on the outcome of that one, but the line will have been crossed. Someone will back down or be carried off that day.
