You guys may or may not be surprised, but a majority of LE are very pro second amendment and would not enforce a gun ban or confiscation. A Felon/DV Abuser/Mentally Ill individual or other person who should not be allowed to posses firearms is different than being a decent citizen who should have the constitutional right to bear arms in self defense. So rest a little easier. That's all I will say.
If death comes... it will be by a thousand cuts: banning online sales to Oregon of certain firearms and hi-capacity magazines, limiting and taxing ammunition sales, open/concealed carry being banned in certain places, etc. Basically choking off the ability to buy the actual firearm and the supply of ammunition itself.
Thats cool to think about, but in reality... when our rifles are banned... and we choose not to turn them in... who among us is going to actually take them out and shoot them, thus creating a situation where we might happen upon a friendly LEO who wont arrest us?
Either way, the ban doesnt need to be enforced to work. For most of us, as recreational shooters, we will be effectively shut down. Sure we can stash it under the floorboards and bust it out come revolution time... but that is nowhere near an ideal situation.
We need to fight now. AT LEAST on the federal level.
I wish a local politician would hold one of these town halls where we can all get together and make a showing to counter the droning of the left...
