Just an observation that will probably get everyone who reads this post or post to this thread an instant folder at ATF (adjusting tinfoil hat, sprinkling salt around desk).

When I joined the Marines I swore an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States from enemies foreign and domestic. Would this extend to gun control/abolishment groups ? Or politicians eager to sell our rights down the road in order to secure their re-election bids ? If so to what extent would you be willing to go to, to protect this sacred document ?

Yes it would. You took the oath, how do you see it?
