Unless we somehow find the balls to stand and fight....really FIGHT.So let me see if I have this straight:
- I have "natural" right of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that is outside and precedes the Constitution - but I have to have governmental approval to protect myself
- I have a 2A right to bear arms - but only as erodingly restricted by various governmental agencies
- I can obtain a 5 year FFL03 which allows me to purchase certain ages of firearms (the same with my State Certificate of Eligibilty) but I can't be trusted to purchase ammunition for these same firearms that the government already knows about through DROS without new governmental intervention and additional layers of new fees.
- I am increasing being put in the position of being a defacto felon with jail time and financial penalties whereas those who have historically been deemed to be true criminals are being redefined and "forgiven" in such a way as to excuse actual activity.
- I am increasing being looked at as a means to governmental financial gain - sales tax, DROS, ammo background fee, etc, etc, etc...
... We live in interesting times!
