A few things for you to consider:

1. The SWAT raids will succeed - at first and for a while. Then they will begin to encounter the kind of resistance that will ensure that at least some of them will not be going home.

2. The ones who send them will find their lives have become nasty, brutish and short m

3. All of them have families and friends.

4. There will be no rules of engagement - only retaliation and retribution.

One thing to remember. SWAT teams members have family too.

If they are going to enforce unconstituonal laws, then anything goes.

I must say I am encouraged by the replies to my post. I apologize if I offended anyone personally, for that was not my intention. I could have guessed that most gun owners on FR would be prepared for the worst, but my belief is that most of the general public are not. I still think a majority of the people will blindly follow whatever the government dictates, at least initially, and their inability to see the obvious is witnessed by the election of the administration we now have in power. Thankfully, many of those are not gun-owners anyway.

In answer to a couple comments and insinuations posted above: I am a gun-owner, and have always been. I carry concealed every day and everywhere possible. I learned to shoot before I was of school age, for it was a necessity growing up in the Ozarks in the 1950s. I consider myself as much a loyal American as anyone here, am a veteran of the Vietnam conflict and have seen war. I am very willing to defend my native country should it come to that.

I am not willing to passively give up my weapons, nor my rights, to a rogue government. Rather that see our rights eroded every day and watch the piecemeal destruction of the country of my ancestry, I chose to live outside the US, though I am ready to return to defend her if the need arises. I cannot stand idly by and watch our way of life demolished, and though much talk is done by well meaning people, I see none of the real organization and planning that is needed to prevent such an occurrence.

I have been called a traitor, a tax evader, a drug trafficker, even a pedophile because I chose to leave the US, but I assure you I am none of those. I am just an American who cannot bear to see my country destroyed.
