Do you really think its the same ? I don't...

Sure a lot of people talk tough and won't back it up. Maybe most.

But there is still a huge amount that will.

Good people that are having their way of life and means of defending their families stripped from them... And now their dignity will be taken from them as well, and they'll be criminals.

You can't compare that to a gang banger in and out his whole life whose already used to jail. He knows the game.

These people..They don't know or want the game, they'd rather be left alone to go to work and raise their families. Some of them will reach their breaking point. Who could really blame them ?


Dude, you're taking my comment way out of context. It was meant for one member that got booted earlier in the thread.

Having said that, who has more to lose  A gangbanger that has never had a job, already been to prison in the past, hasn't seen his multiple kids in months due to a restraining order, let alone paid child support, or some average Joe Citizen with a wife and family, good paying job, a house and retirement fund?

You tell me?


My children and grandchildren.... and, just for the record??  This isn't about guns or safety.  It's about far far more diabolical matters than "safety".

I could only imagine how much hell would be unleashed by the populace on the "enforcers".  It would make Iraq look like kids play.  

not to mention if that started happening how much infrastructure would start magically shutting down.....entire power grids, water, sewage, trash control, communications, flights, you name it.  NYC would be a jungle in about ten minutes

it would be ugly very quick



You over estimate our power! I'm going to pull a number out of my ass 99.99% of NYers will comply because law abiding citizens do that

that's what the Jews did in Germany


exactly.

and for those who say it can't happen here...well maybe not a same scale.

But violence from the left has been increasing and we are becoming increasingly demonized.

To say it could not happen here is assuming a lot.

German was a nice stable country once too.

One of the Marines I had hunting with me last year as part of a Wounded Warrior Project event, just got a nice, new Rock River Arms AR15 for Christmas.  This guy knows exactly how much he has to lose, because he nearly paid that price already.  Do you think it would be easy to take his rifle from him?

What I meant by making yourself a target was if these kind of measures really did start happening, and you identify with who they view as the enemy and quit over it they would probably raid your house along with the others.

I realize the police probably aren't going to go door to door like we're discussing, but should it happen it might not end well for those officers who quit as well as everyone else involved.

Honestly a state level ban would be much easier to work with.

If I lived in NY and this came about I'd feel I had one choice and thats to move.

No, you shouldn't have too but other than moving you have but a few choices and all of them suck.

Resist, and likely die.

Retain your stuff hidden in private, and go on with your life but be unable to participate in your way of life combined with the fact you'd always be worried you'll be caught.

Turn your stuff in.

I'd be moving to avoid the choice. No doubt.

Now if its a federal ban, or spreads everywhere....A very ugly spot to be in. Hope it never happens.

Unfortunately there is a very big difference. One being it would be considered legal from the government and sanctioned, even demanded versus the other activies that would be shunned and even punished.

One thing that has struck me is that the Feds and local governments really have no idea of the total number of weapons (AR's ) out there.  Oh they have production numbers for receivers, import records etc.  but they really are foolish if they think that MILLIONS, yes MILLIONS of gun owners are going to just turn over their personal property.  They should really review what happened at Lexington and the Concord Bridge.  It's not about how many guns are out there but how many guns are in the hands of those  who will resist tyranny and obey the oath we took to "Defend the Constitution against all enemys foreign and domestic."  This is not about gun control this is about people control.  

I'm not advocating violence, I'm just stating the Feds have no idea what a big can of worms they are trying to open.

It is another thing to post on that message board, which is monitored by an agenda driven media that is not on our side, comments that can be easily manipulated to sound like threats of violence to frighten the masses.
