Not all your guns mind you, that will come later, but what will you do when they ban all "assault weapons" and come for your ARs?

[b]Regardless of what the poll shows, 80%+ will obey the law and surrender their AR-15's.[/b]

I'll leave the take-to-the-roof-tops and chest-pounding to others but that's what will happen.  Why ??  Because virtually al of us are law-abiding citizens who have in the past and will in the future obey the law.  The criminal element who own AR-15's ??  They will still have their AR-15's because they are criminals who in the past have not obeyed the law nor will they in the future.

I'm not the one to judge what is right or wrong but the above is what will be.

That's the reason they'll be so successful too, because we'll think, "I'm just being a law abiding citizen" and anyone who realizes that they are no longer living in a free country will be viewed as the criminal.  By the time they're ready to come for all of our guns, we'll be just as brainwashed as we were prior to WWII, when many Americans were saying, "Hitler's not that bad a guy, he just wants peace."

There are no lines in the sand, and most people are only long distance bad on the Internet.

In all honesty what the f*** is the point of this poll?  Why do people continue to post this kind of shit?  What does it matter what we do when the time comes?  Each man or woman will handle the situation differently but one thing for certain is you will never know until that day comes.

Uhhh, yeah, this isn't something that you talk about on the internet.  You could, I guess, but I wouldn't, because I don't want them coming to my house with guns to enforce the law.  I want them to know that I am a peaceful law-abiding citizen who will peacefully give over his/her guns.  They can come unarmed in suits.

The poll means nothing.  People who have already decided to fight are probably looking for a moment already, which is kinda sick.  Those that decided to turn in their guns may or may not.  The other 80% will decide when the time comes.

I am going with the last guy as far as when the time comes everyone will decide differently.  Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.  Even if I didn't, I am still not telling you.  There is no safe place but between your ears.

You don't send the local cops to confiscate assault weapons. They will resign if asked to do that. That brings up another question...with just your name/SSN, does big brother know what you have for weapons? I thought they could only trace owners from serial numbers on the weapons.

I'm sure they can harvest this information from dealers quite easily.  In fact, my dealer informed me that the ATF frequently performs 'Compliance Checks' on his books.  If they haven't already collected this information, they could.  It's all at their finger tips.  Hopefully if it ever comes down to the wire, thousands of dealers will have unexpected fires in their back rooms.

im sure theyll first pass a law closing the gun show loophole, and requiring all guns be reported lost or stolen immediately just like they do NFA guns.  I'm sure 3 days before the bill is signed into law, there will be a few million reported cases of stolen firearms.

I'd turn over every gun that was still in my personal possession...
as a law abiding (coppertop) citizen...

Unfortunately, (2) have been stolen (seriously), and the rest will have been sold before then...
Neo was the buyer, or was that Morpheous???
I don't know they were there one minute on the phone, and then they simply disappeared...

They don't have to get violent with you or start an uprising.  All they gotta do is detain YOU if you are on the list (transaction form 4420?) at your dealers.  After a few weeks, since you can't make payments on the house and car, and utilities, you will be F***ED.  Then you will gladly give them up because your neighbors and other non-AR folks haven't had any problems, and their lives are going on as before.  Very low key way to do things, and the average citizen will not give a shit about your plight because it isn't affecting them or most of the population.  So it's your choice.

Me I don gotta worry but my 78 year old widowed Mamma might, although at last check all the family illegal weapons were at her house.  Most had moved on to my Sheriff bro-in-law.  A variety of batons, blackjacks, saps, my wifes Grandpa's loaded billy (now that was one nasty piece - imagine a corked baseball bat, shrink the long dimension to 18", keep the width the same as original, now take the cork out and replace with lead.), the Brit swagger stick with the hidden stilletto.  That's what happens when you had a Cop from the good old days in the family.  Guns - All I got is the revolver to go here in the original box*, he musta given the others away.

That it is. We are making that choice even now, as we speak. The gov't will be far more likely to attempt this if they think we will lie down like good little sheep. Hell, the only thing that has stopped them in the past is the threat of force against them.

Whatever we do, let's not advertise our intent or fantasy to the world (Liberal pols) to use as ammunition against us at a later date.  If we can't get the politicians by the gonads, and to have them notice us..then more extreme measures may be needed.  That time is not here yet, but it's getting closer...we need to keep them on their toes.

Agreed, Greco. I doubt there are many of us here with fantasies of harmin anyone. However, if my choice is to do so or lose my freedoms it will be an easy choice for me to make.

We do need a little militancy to keep the forces against us at bay. For that matter if we all stand together(?) it will not matter what the liberals think--see my sig line.

I am a doctor and am committed to helping others. That does not mean I am a whimp, nor will I watch as my freedom is usurped by neo fascism. Not on my watch. If our grandfathers had such an attitude we would not currently be dealing with the social problems that currently envelop this nation.

Good. I think that it is my point that they know better than to screw with us as a group.

Although, as duly noted above, if 77% are going to hide then maybe I am the one screwed.

All it will take from us is unity--not exactly our forte if history is any indication. Divide and conquer...

I say fuck 'em. Time for us all to act like men. To many years of women telling us how to act. Don't let them win guys. It has already cost us far too much. Far, far, too much.

I think most people would bury + lie because they'd get more of a following when they came for ALL our guns.  After all, anyone who would've gone to war in 94 when the ban was passed would've been looked at as a criminal by the rest of the gun owning society who didn't take the assault weapons ban seriously, or think it applied to them "hunters".

This is not a hypothetical question.  "Assault weapons" have already been banned in California.  What did THEY do?  I don't know, but if someone living in California knows maybe they will give us some info.  I don't remember reading about a revolution, so they either complied or lied.  

My idea of a good solution is a "Million ARMED MAN March" in Washington DC.  The Feds don't have a million jail cells, and I don't believe for a minute that the National Guard would fire on a peaceful march (no I'm not forgetting Kent State, but they didn't KEEP shooting). So what the hell could they do?  It worked for Martin Luther King.  And when you get right down to it, this IS about Civil Rights, and that is how we should fight it.

If such a law should come to pass, I think it will go the way of the registration debacle in Canada -- it will become unenforcible.  Most of Canada's provinces are refusing to enforce the mandatory registration of firearms.  And registration is still less extreme than outright confiscation.
