I like what the NRA is doing lately. Its way past time to stand up.
Hang tough. The PTBs will be cranking up the pressure to counter. May we all wake up in time.
Though there is one already, I hope people create a bunch of “private gun reseller” service, intended to avoid government accessible paperwork trails. Taking advantage of the misnamed “gun show loophole”, to purchase guns then resell them as private sales for cash only.
Currently the scam is that, while the government may or may not follow its own rules in not recording who has purchased guns, dealers are required to do so. And so the federals or even the local police can go to the gun dealer and demand to see who they sold guns to.
And there are reports of the feds copying the entire ledger of gun dealers, though that is not entirely legal.
So, one bright and sunshiny day, when the DHS shows up at the house of some reseller, claiming that he owns dozens of rifles, shotguns, and handguns, which they can identify by serial number, and are there to confiscate, he can just shrug, and say, “sorry, sold ‘em.”
When they ask, “To who?” He can honestly say, “No idea.”
Getting angry, they demand to see his sales receipts. “Aren’t any.” Credit card records? “None”. Canceled checks? “Nope.”
“We have no warrant, but we don’t need one, so we will now proceed to search and tear about your trailer.”
“Won’t find any guns or ammo, and I’ve got ‘police trashing your home as harassment’ insurance. And I don’t own any pets you can kill or children you can kidnap, either.”
“You are acting like a terrorist, citizen!”
“Nope. A revolutionary. An American revolutionary.”
First thing. Number one now:
Get rid of Michigan’s registration for handguns.
Now.
