where you are wrong is the feds will not come and arrest me and take my guns. i hope many others feel the same way.
they may come, and they may take my guns. but i wont die alone. there are not enough feds to last very long. when they are gone i dont believe the military will take over killing Americans to take the 2nd ammendment.
and then i predict WE will turn on the people called government and they will have to be replaced. read between the lines.
some say just give them some guns and they will go away. i dont think so. without resistance they wont stop.
the shot heard around the world hit someone, as it must again.
I hear ya.
There will be people that will defend themselves and property from the government.
There will be people that give the government what they want so they go away, as to avoid violence upon their families for the time being.
There will be people that will help the governemnt because they think they will be on the winning side.
There will be people that will help the government because they're brainwashed and indoctrinated, like most of the population is now.
When will people start resisting, though? We're way past the point where freedom lovers should start resisting. Freedom lovers should have resisted the CONstituion, but they were too happy that they defeated England to see the tyranny of setting up another central government.
Everyone has been far too docile, letting men with badges, fancy hats, and robes do whatever they want.
Another problem is that most people only want to fight for the rights they think are important. We'll call these particular rights "cherished rights".
When the government comes to "take away" a particular group's cherished rights, it's already too late, there's no one left to help them fight. The other groups' rights have are already being trampled on or have been taken away. They lost the motivation to fight, or help any other group fight, because their cherished rights are gone, because no one helped them fight to defend those rights.
Here's a play on a popular quote to help demonstrate my point:
First they came for the Rich People.
but I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Rich Person.
Then they came for the Drug-Users,
but I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Drug-User.
Then they came for the Gun-Rights Advocates,
but I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Gun-Rights Advocate.
Then they came for the Home-Schoolers,
but I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Home-Schooler.
So when they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out for me.
On top of that... everything radical the government has done is forgotten by the masses after a few months. Sure, people are outraged from this recent firearms bill, regulating every thing under the sun... if anything passes, people will just go with it after a few months of complaining. Every time there's a new regulation or ban passed, there's an uproar. Then after a few months, everyone goes about business as usual, giving up or forgetting about what the governemnt has done.
Remember the AWB and Hi-Cap mag ban in 1994? Sure, people were mad, but they just sat there like good little sheep. They shook their fists and sent letters. OOOOOOO, letters, that sure did alot of good.
So, **** giving money to the NRA, **** begging our overlords to stop oppressing us, **** the politicians...
I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing, disobeying the governemnt and it's laws, and trying to open people's minds to the idea that a public governemnt is not necessary.
Who's got the balls to stand up to cops, soldiers, and other governemnt employees?
When should you shoot a cop? (This can apply to any governemnt agency, not just cops):
