Umm, no. A civil war will likely break out before such confiscation BS takes place.

No, it won't come to Civil War 2. What WILL happen is the phase that always is a precursor to Civil War......
.....settling scores.

Make your list today. Think local, act local.

This is total BS. Australia is a socialist country just like the UK. They don’t have a constitution or a 2nd amendment.

What it would take to repeal the 2nd amendment will never happen. And if it did happen civil war would commence.

We are not even close to gun confiscation.

“The Feds have a database on who legally owns firearms.”

Based upon what? Real question. BATFE Form 4473? You can sell any gun listed on it and not have to notify a soul.

For now, anyway. That’s what “closing the gun show loophole” fanatics really want to change.

That is true. You are right. I forgot it has to be Constitutional amendment which won’t happen. Although you are right about bringing up “legally” with the Supreme Court.

Liberals could in essence gut the Second Amendment through packed courts. The confiscation of firearms would however inevitably cause armed resistance. I fear that the First Amendment, already being eroded by political correctness, could disappear in my lifetime with little opposition.

REMEMBER (Immigration Act of 1966)
“Out of deference to the critics, I want to comment on … what the bill will not do. First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same … Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset”

Everything they say is a LIE!

Yes, and if I have to surrender my ammo, I will do it one round at a time.

“...I don’t care what NY or CA do as long as they keep their crap out of Florida and the other 47 states.”

Hope this doesn’t bust your bubble but “their crap” is already in FL in the form of those who moved down there and brought the virus with them. And I’m not talking about just the blue-hairs either. There’s a significant contingent of LE double-dippers who retired after 20 in NY, came to FL to do it again. Witness what happened in the FL state senate recently where they “did something about guns” on a voice vote and immediately reversed it when the vote was made to be recorded.

Absurd article.

Obama had 8 years to do it, including 2 years of “never a better opportunity”, and didn’t.
Hillary didn’t. Blew her shoo-in opportunity.
Trump won’t. Period.

And were it to happen, in the unlikely instance of not just a hardcore Leftist POTUS-COTUS-SCOTUS _and_ a filibuster-proof majority, they would have to go get ‘em all. Between 100,000,000 guns + 3,000,000,000,000 rounds ammo, an instant explosion of garage-CNC/3D production in spite, and the 0.01% ultra-hardcore that would go on an immediate (and professionally executed) political killing spree with aid & comfort from a sympathetic 1%, it would be over pretty quick.

Hopefully civil war will not come about.

If it does it be a very short, very violent and very bloody and deadly civil war for the left wingers in America.

In the meantime the snowflake left wingers can't even decide what sex they are and what bathrooms to use!

They need to study history to see what happened to the most powerful country in world, when it tried to take our guns away in 1776 and 1812 and declared war against us.

That country has been on a steady decline in power since 1815.*

*The War of 1812 lasted from June 1812-February 1815, a span of two years and eight months.

Excellent Article.

NUMBER 6 (judges) is EVERYTHING!
Lose the judges and it’s GAME OVER...just a matter of time.

Which is why I’d even vote for Romney...if I lived in Utah.

You don’t SERIOUSLY expect judges like Ginsberg to rule in favor of gun owners, do you?

If so, then it’s already over.

I can see a lot of..."Deputy Smith, "a government firearms collector", his wife and two children were shot and killed from ambush last night as the family entered their neighborhood Pizza Hut for dinner.

It wouldn't take much of that sort of thing happening all over the country every night of the week, to really get the "government collectors" morale to take a dive.

A week or so of that and I'd imagine the government might have some trouble staffing their collection squads.

The first few confiscations can be expected to go “smoothly”.

After a while, they can be expected to become more ... difficult.

And those that send the confiscators will start to learn what an old, untraceable bolt-action mil-surplus rifle can do at 500 yards.

This won’t happen because it would be the start of all out civil war.

Well, it could be on someone’s ill fated agenda.

Me, too. At about 2400 FPS.
