“From my cold dead hands”! Here is your History lesson: Sioux Indians at Wounded Knee South Dakota 122 years ago.
Federal agents and members of the 7th Cavalry who had come to confiscate their firearms “for their own safety and protection”. The slaughter began AFTER the majority of the Sioux had peacefully turned in their firearms. When the final round had flown, of the 297 dead or dying, two thirds (200) were women and children. This was the first federally backed gun confiscation program in United States history.

Exactly right......and those, like a poster above here in this very thread, who refuse to believe it’s possible are going to be shocked as all hell the first time it happens....not just in modern day America, but VERY soon.

It’s coming, folks. Be ready.

bill clinton just came out yesterday and told them to back off. They thought their time had come. They were wrong.

BUT
Prepare for a new and different crisis because they NEED the chaos and it WILL come.

The Wounded Knee incident was ruled in federal court to be an act of war with the Sioux Nation, which resulted in the acquittal of a Sioux who killed (or murdered if not an act of war) an Army officer.

During time of war it is routine to disarm the enemy.
