Worst case scenario?

Add six flaming liberal justices to the Supreme Court, have Bloomberg sue to overturn the Heller decision, Second Amendment declared not to be an individual right, 'Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them all in!'

That's a worst case scenario.

Government can’t fill a damn pothole, rampant drug use and homeless are basically living wherever the hell they want.


You think the government has manpower or the time to gather up hundreds of millions of guns?

Worst case? Everything that shoots or stabs is banned and volunteers from the APLA (American Peoples Liberation Army) go door to door looking for "contraband."

And if you are caught with said contraband, instant summary execution. No trial, no jail, no nothing. Just you dead in a ditch someplace.

The powers that be want it and they are going to get it. Sooner rather than later at the rate things are going.

I'm optimistic that nothing is going to happen.

As it relates to present day sentiments, the mindset of guns in 1994 is like comparing apple to oranges.  

The Democrat majority in the House is only 10 members. If the filibuster is removed, the senate needs 51 votes. When anti-gun groups are already saying the votes are not there, I have to believe them. Any lawmaker in a purple district isn't going to vote on something that will ensure and end to their political career.

You left out "unregistered weapons"

You left out non-serialized guns "ghost guns" that are "all over the streets"


Also it's worth noting that the draft of the '94 AWB included handguns but where omitted because they knew that provision would kill the deal.


I expect it will be incremental, continued chiseling starting with "weapons of war" being added to the NFA that will become AWB 2.0.

I expect them to go after 80% lowers, and try to kill "parts kits" on the internet, forced to buy from a gun store eventually with a background check of course.

I'm sure if they have their way being in possession of STL files for a 3D printed firearm will be "just as bad" as child porn.

This, plus more.

Once the 2A is declared a collective right, the same is applied to the 1A. Then they ban collective speech by overturning Citizens United. Then they close loopholes by expanding red flag laws beyond mere gun cases, why should not being a gun owner allow someone to exercise extremist right wing views like due process.

That's the worst case, but it ignores probability.

The likelihood of the worst case occurring is very small. But its not zero.

Worst case scenario is civil war.  If the Democrats try to make sweeping changes to the compact with a 10 seat lead in the House and a 50-50 Senate, I expect there to be some violent pushback.

Yeah, if there's expanded NFA registration or new licensing schemes we'll have a large amount of gloaters going on about how they got theirs and the "poors" can't afford it, etc.

While a gun ban would be bad and really would secure everything else that the left wants to do, there is plenty that will be bad for this country..

Lots of things.

No bank accounts or loans - first for gun makers/dealers, then owners  (they're already working on this one)
Publicly accessible registration databases
Total ban on possession, sale, transfer, transport, etc, of parts for banned weapons, as "assault weapon conversion parts".   This has been a feature of every federal Dem gun ban proposal since the sunset of the 94 AWB.
No mail order sales of ammo
No mail order sales of the parts that aren't banned
Background checks and fees per ammo purchase, with monthly limits
Mandatory storage requirements and annual inspections
Annual fees for re-registration and more background checks
Expansive programs for anonymously reporting gun owners, and rewards for turning people in
Total target shooting ban on federal lands

The Dems have bigger things to do, true, but a lot of those things aren't safe to do until they start disarming people and have begun to make examples.   They have bet the entire farm on gaining and keeping power, now, and cannot survive honest democratic processes or an armed citizenry in the face of the clusterfucks that are coming.

I'm sort of surprised the Dems have fucked up so hard with their treatment of the guard in DC right out of the gate, but then they were never big on competence, just on tenacity and a total lack of ethics.  They need all the military support they can get.

Exactly, someone gets it..They cannot even round up 17,000,000 illegal aliens..And they are easy to find..There will be NO door to door confiscation of Firearms..Not even if they wanted to. Logistically impossible. Likely of a 1/2 Billion Firearms in this Country..And alot more that are not on the books. Home Built, private sales. inherited ones, and so on.

Who is going to go out and collect them even if they could do it logistically? Military, Local Police, State Police, Sheriffs Dept?  You really think any of these people are going to go out and confront Family and friends, friends family and friends, and take up a battle with them and kill their Army buddies friends and family back home? Just because they are told to do so?

People on the right I think have gone just as crazy as the left has now..Yes they may get some token anti 2nd amendment done. But never on a large scale as people here think they can or will. It is a far left fantasy at best..And the rights fear mongering driving the fact that they will or can do it at all.

What limited stuff they do accomplish, will eventually be reversed, wether by the Courts or the next Administration.

Biden is a sure one termer, and a Republican will be seated in the WH in 2025... I may be ignored here alot, but I am never wrong,LOL

People just need to relax, ride it out..This great Republic will survive Biden for 4 years. I survived Kennedy, Johnson, Jerry Ford, Carter, Clinton, Obama.  

Even got though Nixon,Reagan both Bushes and Trump. The second set are lesser of the evils I have had to endure. We always persevere. And will again.
