In the real world, that story don't work. It did not work for the Germans. It won't work here. I seen a video on you tube about life in Germany when the National Socialists took power. The guy said that one morning that the police arrived and dug up his neighbor's garden,[we would refer to it as his back yard]they did not find anything but they took him in. He later learned that word was that his neighbor had a machine gun buried in his garden. They [the police] subsequently beat his neighbor to death trying to get him to confess. Therefore, the reality is that when the police come to your house for your guns, you are going to do, or not do what ever you are going to do then and there. You can like or you can dislike it. You can believe it or not believe it.

That said, ever how it goes with CT is how it will go with the Nation. will the people surrender or will they fight?

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

-- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

I don't believe so, northeastern liberal states have quite a different mindset than some western states.
