2A argument is being reduced to size and numbers, discussions of registration and confiscation, when it should stand on its own.
2A entertains none of that crap, but that citizens have arms capable of defending against tyrants. ( Including ALL the basic advances in arms.)
This means arms of the quality, performance and precision capable of matching the threat of the tyrant.
Why are we found arguing size and numbers, registration and confiscation?
These Marxists are after the militia and everything that makes them real.
All the great heroes of history, stories and legends share the common thread of the hero sticking his finder in the wind and waiting to see which side is winning and then joining that side - usually waiting until the battle is over and then crawling out of his hidey hole to the field and picking up a shield from some dead sap and taking it home in triumph. Yessirree!
YOU are right.
Almost any of us could be that first example.
However I keep thinking that those who rushed out and bought ammunition and rifles inthe last month or so, to beat the gun ban will be first on the list.
My stuff—what little I didn’t lose in the big duck hunting incident—I have had for years.
Did you read the post about how Obama is a big time skeet shooter? Can you believe that lying CS’er??
Lets hope so
Well you see you jumped on a bad assessment.
I stated:I will wait and hold my judgement on how many will be disobedient until after the first few examples have been made.
I did not state what I would do about my weapons, only that I would wait and see how many will actually do what they say they will do.
"Do you intend to register your firearms if mandatory registration becomes law?"
I think pollsters are putting the cart ahead of the horse here. Most would agree the Fed isn't going to step in right away and confiscate our firearms, a far more likely scenario first would be registration followed later by confiscation.
But would most see the registration for what it is and refuse to comply?
“It is imperative that Finstein’s bill comes to a vote in both houses.”
Old saying: “Be careful what you wish for — you may get it.”
Applies here, too
Based on this argument, maybe the better term would be Civil Resistance or Civil Resistance to Tyranny
I say bring it. The sooner this happens the better. It will only be more bloody and worse later.
I am tired of politicians being able to hide behind no votes. It's time to draw the line in the sand.
Local law enforcement in most states will not enforce these gun grabbing laws leaving it to DHS and the ATF to enforce them. There simply aren’t enough federal agents to do this hence Obama is asking and soon compelling doctors to be snitches under Obamacare, making teachers mandatory reporters of guns if any kid so much as mentions that one might be at home and installing anonymous “tip” lines for his loyal followers to rat on their neighbors. This is the same technique used by the “Stasi”, the East Germany secret police, to root out anti-government dissidents. Gun owners with permits and records of gun purchases will be harassed with IRS audits, obscure EPA violations and home raids with phony warrants for alleged kiddie porn, illegally copied music etc. where guns will be seized and not returned when there is no evidence of a crime. Welcome to Obama’s fascist state.
As for now, Feinstein’s bill has a grandfather clause. So, it’ll be awhile before they come for those who already own guns. Might not be able to find ammo, though.
And don’t think for a minute the local cops won’t help the feds. When a federal agent walks into a small town police department everyone in there will snap to attention. And the feds may bring them along just to shoot the dogs.
