We all have but one hill to die on so choose wisely.
A full ban and confiscation is impossible even if the President thinks he or she can write the laws. Once the Supreme Court goes 5/4 liberal they can start destroying the 2nd one bit at a time. We see the populous presidents trying to take matters into their own hands creating laws out of nothing - and completely going against the laws that congress as passed ... and getting away with it. |

Washington DC has proven to be the enemy of free America.
There is a lesson to be learned (albeit from two pieces of shit) from the impact a talented shooter and a nice scoped rifle can have . One would be wise to study such things. For education only, of course. |

tacocat Go back to DU where you belong. View Quote Why do I belong at DU? I asked a legitimate question. What good will burying guns do? What good is all the ammo you have stacked in the corner gonna do for you when you can't shoot it? Maybe if you don't like reading what other people have to say you should stay off the internet. I really want to know. |

To elaborate at the time of the revolution the country was much smaller, and the government had much less control. I'm not trying to downplay the risk the founders took, but it was much easier to secretly plan and discuss options then. The number of people they needed for success was much smaller. If need be it was also easier to avoid and hide from the authorities.
The number of people required to do what they did is substantially higher now, and it's obviously much harder to coordinate a larger number of people. I'm sure everyone have heard the jokes about militias and how most of the members are undercover feds. So what it seems to me we have is a bunch of individuals and small groups that can't easily coordinate or plan with each other. It's impossible to even get an idea of how many people there are that are even willing to do anything. As we've already seen on this thread different people have different lines in the sand and it's understandable that no one wants to be the first to try the waters so to speak. I know that California and New York and other similar places aren't necessarily indicative of the whole country, but nothing has really happened in those states in regard to the infringements there. Maybe it just isn't bad enough there yet for the people who live there to do something, or maybe most people just don't have it in them to do what is necessary. |

View Quote This is true and I think what is really troubling me. Without sounding to morbid I would hate to die in vain so to speak. I think that's why there is so much inaction. No one wants to fail, and they certainly don't want to if it cost them their life. |

Everybody has a hill to die on.
As another poster said, as long as AC and football are on, no one will do anything. Things can still be done, though. Get your 3-4 homies together, make lists, and get to bipod pushing. Not hard at all. |

grandfathering combined with a transfer ban is the most powerful weapon at the gun grabbers' disposal. they get to brag about 'making progress,' while the "i got mine" mentality will result in far less resistance. want to kill america's gun culture? grandfather everything, but ban transfers and regulate ranges. within a generation, the political will to fight for gun rights will be completely hollowed out (because recreational shooting will be almost extinguished). i've just made myself angry all over again.

Except I think Bernie is serious about his bullshit. He'll at least try hard. But I also think even the Dems know that you can only burden corporations so much without completely destroying the economy, and they're already a little past that point, so in the end he'll get no more taxes (even though all the Congress idiots will gladly spend lots more imaginary money we don't have). |
