lol What did America do in 1934, when the first gun control was passed?

A huge uprising would need to have the organization and command/control already in place. Without that I don’t think there will be much of a stir other than words and NRA claiming that it would have been worse without their negotiations.

If it did hit the fan, it’s worth noting that in both Iraq and Afghanistan, guns are not that big of a problem. We can’t seem to handle IEDs too well, though.

In 1934 we did not have telephones or facebook or email. What happens anywhere in the world today is at your desktop in less than five minutes. In fifteen minutes, you can have I-10, I-20, I-40, and I-80 blocked in both directions. Want to close a major airport, major harbor, major manufacturing plant, no sweat. That all can be done in 30 minutes too.

No, my FRiend there’s a large difference between then and today. Most veterans can tell you how to do any or all of the things I mentioned with a very small team of men and women.
