Saw thus very accurate meme in Facebook.
Only the dumbest among Gun Control fans is still talking about confiscation. The reality in the US is that with half a billion firearms and God knows how many billion rounds in the hands of civilians, confiscation is just a rapidly fading dream.
But laws against behavior are easy to pass and that goes double for jurisprudence affecting the legal battlefield: If they can’t get the gun, they will try to make its usage in self-defense a very costly proposition. If they make you think twice before committing to self defense, they win. If you die or get injured, well they told you before that guns are not a solution. If you happen to survive unscathed the attack of a “property re-distributor” and he does not, get ready to have your ass dragged through a legal field of broken glass.
And don’t take it personally: You are not being personally attacked, but used as example for the rest of the population that the State is the one with a Monopoly on Killing as they know better than you. And if crime skyrockets and you are afraid to walk outside your home, well, that was part of the plan: You cannot get political contrary if you are constantly afraid for your life. The government using common criminals as their surrogates for internal security forces is actually a very cost-effective way to keep the boot stamping your face.
It is working charmingly efficient in Venezuela.
Just remember Michael Strickland.
Plenty of video evidence that he was about to get a serious beatdown while in view of police officers who did nothing…convicted on 10 felony counts for pulling his glock and going in to low ready.
Little Bill Daggett : I guess you think I’m kicking you, Bob. But it ain’t so. What I’m doing is talking, you hear? I’m talking to all those villains down there in Kansas. I’m talking to all those villains in Missouri. And all those villains down there in Cheyenne. And what I’m saying is there ain’t no whore’s gold. And if there was, how they wouldn’t want to come looking for it anyhow.
Attorney Binger: I guess you think I’m persecuting you, Kyle. But it ain’t so. What I’m doing is talking, you hear? I’m talking to all those patriots down in the red states. I’m talking to those Trumpers. I’m talking to those school parents against CRT. And what I’m saying is that you can’t stand up to BLM. You can’t go against Antifa. You can’t protect your own community, and even if they did they’ll lose anyway.
well done @don curton

I belong to the local sportsmans club in town, affectionately known as Militia HQ. If anyone ever tried to shut down our ranges, they would be lucky to just get burned out of their house, and at worst decorating a lamp post.
No self defense.
Must store gun away from ammo.
Must not have ammo in magazine.
Gun must be locked away at all times, and transported in a locked container.
Ammo and mags must be locked away separately.
Ammo and mags must not be in same transport container as gun.
Ammo and mags and guns must be stored in an off-site location, not in the home.
This is all coming. Once they have gotten rid of self defense, they’ll attack the storage of one’s guns and ammo and other weapons of defense.
And once they have all the weapons and ammo stored outside of home, then they’ll confiscate from the off-site location.
Confiscation and destruction is still their goal. They (most of them) are just not openly talking about it. They’re doing it incrementally.
