This is something I've been thinking about lately. I honestly believe if there is another gun ban that they will be much smarter about it this time. In light of what happened the last time around I think it would be stupid to assume they haven't learned from their mistakes. I would expect something more comprehensive without a sunset and grandfathering.
What's honestly been eating me up about it is I have no idea what I would do. I think we all have things we won't stand for. Lines in the sand if you will, but if those lines are crossed what can you even do? I didn't start this thread to discuss the varying plans of the members here. Obviously that would be a pretty big violation of persec/opsec not to mention it would probably just get the thread locked. I guess I really just felt like venting and I figured I couldn't be the only one having these thoughts. If something like the above happened I would obviously want to change it, but I honestly don't see any solution that has much chance for success. I'm definitely not a defeatist I just don't like the feeling of having no real plan or contingency for something that I believe will happen. These are interesting times we live in and I believe hard times are ahead. Maybe I'm trying to overthink things and all one can really do is prepare the best you can and roll with the punches as they come. Surely I'm not the only one that thinks about these things. |

If she wants them so bad, let her come to collect them personally. |

You shouldn't own a gun if you don't know where your endgame is.

Why would people who support the 2nd amendment, stand with others who support the 2nd Amendment, on a website that supports the 2nd Amendment?
Ain't got time for that |

This is like that saying about, "When you think it's time to bury your guns it's actually time to use them" or however it goes. These people are intent on destroying this country. Driving it into a civil war is on the table for them. |

I hope to God it doesn't come to that. I truly do.
Forget about panics, the blood would run in the streets. |

While I agree, his scenario might not be too far off. If Hillary wins most likely the D's will win the house and Senate. If so, she will get her gun ban. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Oh man... the panic is going to be epic this year. While I agree, his scenario might not be too far off. If Hillary wins most likely the D's will win the house and Senate. If so, she will get her gun ban. For the record I'm not panicking, and I do realize she can't do it all by herself. I just like to have a plan in place for any potential situation that arises. |

Maybe she will find out why the 2A was established to begin with.

Where did everyone get this idea that the POTUS is a dictator that can do what they please? Obama wanted gun control more than anything else and even when dems held the house and Senate early on they couldn't get a new assault weapon ban pushed through.

I probably wasn't as clear as I should have been. I know what my endgame is so to speak. I just don't feel like it has much chance of success. The only successful endgame I can see involves relying on a lot of other people, and I'm not a fan of relying on people I don't know and trust. I guess the best you can do is do what needs to be done and hope others do as well. If not well that doesn't really matter I guess since I'm not giving up any of my guns. |

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. |

It's bullshit to inflame her base. Just like the wall is for Trump, forcing large corporations into paying crippling taxes is for Bernie and abolishing the IRS is for Cruz. None of it is ever going to happen and they know it. The time has come to look them in the face and call it what it is, utter and complete bullshit. |

A great many of us who went through AWB 1.0 ain't going to be playing along with AWB 2.0.

View Quote I guess the op might have been a bit to ambiguous in regard to that. Obviously it can't be done without congress. I'll even agree that if Hillary gets elected she might not be able to get it done, but the way the country is headed it would be foolhardy to not realize that it will most likely happen eventually. |

I don't give a flying fuck what that cloven hoofed hag writes on a piece of paper,not that she would even have the ability to do it herself..
