There’s simply no way they could ever disarm the American people, unless the people did so voluntarily.

There’s not enough bag-pipe players to handle all of the police funerals that would result from the attempt.

Hey I play the bagpipes (badly!)

I don't think that many cops would assist in a mass disarming. At the moment, they storm a house here and there, but most cops have never done anything but pull over speeders. I think they'd balk if they were ordered to take every gun in America.

Hell, a lot of them would join the resistence.

Nor do all the police want to disarm the people. There are those that would lick the Fed hand but there those who will resist.

“Police”?
How about blue helmeted U.N. troops???
And obammy has made it possible for U.S. troops to be under U.N. command.
Would American troops fire on U.S. citizens? ask Lon Horiuchi. Ask Janet Reno.
I do know that Americans WILL fire on those who TRY to take away their arms.

Just for grins and giggles, a few years ago I added up all the active military personnel from all of the countries of the world, and then compared that to the number of Americans who bought a large game hunting license the preceding year.

The short answer is, the number of large-game license hunters in America exceeds the military personnel of all the countries of the world combined, sans China.

And that’s not counting Americans who have guns but don’t deer hunt.

A couple things to think about.

1) Our politicians do not fear an armed population. Maybe they should but they DON'T. So what does that tell us?

2) Our forefathers said “a well regulated militia being necessary............” We are not well regulated meaning trained, we are just a bunch of guys with guns, which will be taken out one at a time for the most part...................

It would have to be a Progressive plan over time.

Consider that they would need two very important chess pieces in place:

1). A government “Lockdown” on when or where you can sell or buy a gun.

[From the gun-grabber propaganda mill, this is know as the “Gun-Show loophole”]

2) Firearms registration – this coupled with total government control over transfers would –over time – yield them a database on who has the guns.

The key word is “Over time” – they need this in order to build the database AND to lull people into a false sense of security that we can trust the gun-grabbers not to do what they are dedicated to doing.

Then of course they could always try the ‘Brute force’ method – bully everyone into registering their weapons and snitching on others who don’t.

They may think that this would provide a big enough net to get enough of our guns in order to ‘Pacify’ the country.

It would be easier than you think to disarm most Americans.

Here is how:
1. A guy from the city water department, probably someone you have known for years, shows up to take your water meter.

2, A woman from the electric company, perhaps your children go to school with hers, shows up to take the electric meter.

3. A guy from the gas company comes to take your gas meter.

4. The cell phone company cuts off your account.

5. Bank and credit card accounts are frozen.

Of course you can get all this back if your bring your guns out to the curb where a committee of citizens will collect them and then do a search of your property. No police needed because everyone is operating under the same kind of threat that you are.

Hopefully I am wrong.
