    We haven’t fallen yet but just imagine if they were somehow able to disarm everyone all at once. How would that fare for everyone?

      Not a damn thing would change.

      Nobody, and I mean nobody gives a shit about your guns.

      They are robbing you blind and trapping you helplessly under the ‘freedom’ banner.

      It’s infuriating to see from outside. Mostly because very few stand up, and others are even willing to stop the few.

        Yes, yes they do. It’s constantly a hot topic, several States have created registries for ownership, FOID cards to track who’s buying what, and some politicians even want to serialize everything. On top of what they’ve already banned.

        They’re robbing plenty of people, agreed, and doing so incrementally so it’s not really perceived. I get that.

        But then yes, you threaten many who believe “it’s a God-given right to own a firearm” and speak about it going away, people would start to take action.

            Since 2001? Why that date? I also never said it happened yet, only that they’re slowly trying to. I think you should work on your reading and comprehension skills.

            Currently, there are numerous lawsuits of various 2A rights groups suing state and gov bodies over these laws that infringe upon Americans’ rights. It’s a game of rush a policy to block/ban, lose in court eventually, repeat. They don’t care, and ironically any criminals don’t care either, they do what they want despite laws, so it really doesn’t help law abiding citizens either.
