Be serious. I couldn't even generate any enthusiasm on FR for a phone campaign to the Senators on the Senate Rules Committee, which oversees the FEC and could make a difference here.

The interest is close to zero.

If we had a decent sized interest, we could stop this thing in its tracks.

And once we've let it go into law, you guys don't have enough guns to overthrow the gov't.

Our best chance to win is to fight now, using the weapons our democracy provides. I believe in the Second Ammendment, but have little hope of victory on that front.

The Jews didn't fight back against the Nazis until it was too late and that was the Warsaw Ghetto.

You'd think that Americans would learn from the lessons of the past but they won't.

One freedom after another will fall and Americans will do nothing.

People will be imprisoned for their unpopular ideas and Americans will do nothing.

The guns will be outlawed and Americans will do nothing.

The UN will take over and Americans will do nothing.

Maybe a handful of us will make a stand, who knows. But the vast majority will watch TV and play video games and even cheer as the US flag is hauled down and the UN flag is raised.
