... we all agree that there needs to be some sort of criteria allowing the state to prevent some people from posessing a firearm.

Do not agree on that one. Even a felon who has served his time is entitled to self defense under our second amendment. Anyone who can not be trusted to be armed should not be running around loose.

The problem is that if the state gets too “agressive” they can find all sorts of reasons to prevent a person from owning a gun - thanks to the squishy mental illness caveat

“There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.”
Ayn Rand

While there may be some agents shot at homes as they attempt to confiscate a gun, the more likely scenario is that action is taken against the confiscating conspirators at their homes, places of business, or work, or on errands.

Those who will be GIVING THE ORDERS have to be at the top of the target list. When the confiscations start, they must start having "accidents" or just disappearing. Cut off the head and the snake will die.

What goes hand-in-hand with the gun confiscation, is that any resistance can result in further confiscation of assets, thereby helping CA coffers.

See my post 60. We even agree on the reasoning. ;-)

I knew a man who was charged with an accidental felony (Left the scene of an accident he did not cause) back in 1939. He was later paroled from prison and walked across Europe carrying an M1-Garand for Patton.
He never had another run in with the Law. In 1968, when the 1968 Gun Control Law was passed, he was declared to be not fit to own a firearm because of the 1939 felony.

If he lived in Cali he would now be a possessor of an illegal gun.

Not Constitutional, Ex Post Facto law.

Actually the GCA is unconstitutional, congress cannot legislate your rights away period.

They’re likely counting on that scenario to say “See? See? We are right to confiscate these!”

Hopefully the California Freepers (Neverdem, IIRC, runs the ping list) will become aware of this and make preparations.

At least one, apparently.

Let’s not go through mental gymnastics to justify one head of the two-headed hydra.

It doesn't matter to them whether we fight or we don't fight.
They're UNCONSTITUTIONALLY moving to confiscate our guns,
The United States Citizens KNOW that they're going to have to fight TYRANTS in their own government.
You cannot protect life, without the ability to take life.

While you are WAITING for the police to respond, someone could be losing their life.
All people of a responsible age should be armed.

As EternalVigilance reminded us:

Let us NEVER FORGET THAT !

Let's subjugate them to OUR end game, DUST!
"COMPROMISE" is a DIRTY word!
People who study the Bible know that COMPROMISE almost always leads to destruction.


It's time to mock the "Gun Control" Zombies!
"Gun Control" is a firm grip, steady breathing, accurate aim (developed by lots of practice), and a slow trigger pull.


The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
We need to learn from the Swiss and implement their "gun control measures" here in the United States right now, today!
These laws are the ones we should shove into the "2nd Amendment Haters" faces.

The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
Let's adopt THEIR LAWS !

Remember: So with that in mind, it's time to USE all that ammo we've been storing.
Send these gun-confiscating TYRANTS to HELL !

Read Second Amendment: It’s Not About Hunting, IT'S ABOUT TYRANNY .

What I always find hillarious is how gun control advocates conveniently ignore children deaths due to drowning, WAY MORE PREVALENT than murder by a gun.
