If that is how the USSC rules, this won't end well. It won't end well at all.

One area where I depart from your article is that certain elements may do what you claim in the article, and may even have some success, but would result in the birth of a real monster where up until this point has been a fabrication--otherwise known as a self fulfilling prophesy. Think "IRA" or other examples.
At that point, the ground on which the aggravating powers stands becomes unstable. Unlike Afghanistan, where bases can be supplied from outside the country, suddenly supply chains and logistics are at risk, and you end up with enclaves that are set in a landmass swarming with potential threats.
“the Justice Department argued that warrants should not be “presumptively required when a government official’s action is objectively grounded in a non-investigatory public interest, such as health or safety”
In other words: “This is for your own good”

If it is then say bye bye to the constitution.😵😖
Its legal in 9 States already. Just like the Nazis’,,,,In 1932 Hitler required everyone be licensed,,,,,In 1938 Hitler confiscated the guns and started Crystal Nacht. He knew who had what and made gun control his secret Army without firing a shot.
The bellwether for the Second Amendment will be the rate of compliance with coming “Registration” laws.
And the troops? (Who, I will note, were ordered to use deadly force.... which is a first, for decades, since Kent State.)
Yes, and instead of passing bills, they are issuing executive orders, or so it seems.
According to the “Richard” report I viewed earlier today, looked like *visible* troops gone. The dozens and dozens of portapotties are still lined up, although perhaps they are the last things to be removed. There are piles of fence parts to be hauled away. One can now walk up to the capital.
Could still be troops nearby, just not deployed. Dunno.
OR, confiscate cars.
“I bet the court is OK with this.”
This will get shot down by at the least a 6-3 decision.
I’m not saying that the “Digital Gulag” plan would work.
I’m saying that if they believe it will work, they’ll try.
The Japanese did not foresee Hiroshima, Nagasaki and war crimes trials leading to hangings when they attacked Pearl Harbor.
Maryland General Assembly Update
With Crossover day (March 22) behind us, we have only seen a small handful of gun bills advance, all with limited impact. The so-called "Ghost Gun" bills, SB624/HB638 and HB1291 have not been brought before neither the Judicial Proceedings nor Judiciary committees for a voting session. The same is true for SB479/HB200, the extreme gun storage bills. The ammunition bill, HB175, likewise has not moved. MSI submitted oral and written testimony in vigorous opposition to each of these bills. A lot can change in the General Assembly in a very short amount of time, so there is no guarantee that these bills will not advance. The committees have spent a great deal of time on bills related to police reform and issues related to and exacerbated by COVID-19. The end of the legislative session is fast approaching (midnight, April 12 is Sine Die). Any bills that have not passed their original chamber by now are not guaranteed a hearing in the opposite chamber if it does pass its original chamber. A bill must pass both chambers with both consenting to the same language by the end of session to go to the Governor's desk.The Senate has so far passed SB10, SB15, and SB309. We oppose SB10 in its current form, as it is so poorly drafted and amended that it would criminalize possession of firearms in a home within 100ft of a polling place. As amended and passed in the Senate, SB10 does try to correct the issues with the bill that we had pointed out in testimony. You can read more on SB10 HERE.
SB15 (notice of expiration to permit holders) and SB309 (preliminary approval for carry permits applications) both passed the Senate unanimously and have been referred to the House Judiciary committee. We thank all of the members of the Senate for their support of these two very modest bills!
Do the police have to arrive in a Black Maria or will any old police cruiser do?
Yep, it may come down to use it or lose it.
Then we repeat King George III. We all know how that turned out.
Falls under the age-old question — why do humans do evil or allow evil to happen. We are flawed.
