The problem is that the government would have access and authority when they want it and that would provide them with the means to selectively target anyone, any group, they chose to go after.
Further, your note regarding not allowing confiscation (and an earlier post about keeping a stash) makes an otherwise law abiding and patriotic citizen a criminal.
Ness got Capone on tax evasion, there is no reason to believe that a future administration would not go after critics for 'disallowed gun ownership'.
Duly noted...
And I see your point...
But answer me this...When does a “law”, overide an inalienable right endowed upon “you” by “your” creator???
When does an “law” override a “moral” right to self-preservation, a law that would remove or make it “illegal” for you to defend against an immoral and illegal act against you???
Suzanne Hupp made a point about her incident (Lubys’ in Killeen, Texas) that if she had the chance to choose between having a felony conviction, and have her parents alive today, she would have done it in a heartbeat!
I think we need to beat those policies and risks against us into oblivion! And if we have to civily and moraly dissobey an immoral law, I believe there would be a lot of people we might have to crawl over to get to the head of that pack, if it was that important to you...
If it ever came to us seeing what the government (any political lean to it) had in store for us, I think we’d still be ahead of the game...And I also believe in a short while that the effects on enforcement of that immoral policy/law would manifest itself very quickly into something very unpleasant...
But this is only insomuch in regards to how committed both sides are to their convictions...
