When they come for your guns . . . You will turn them over

[BradM]

i will shoot the person collecting guns in the face. if i get shot down or executed because of it.. fine. i'd rather be dead than deal with whatever is next. if it involves disarming the public it can't be good

This is my stance too. I'm no Billy badass either.

Even if it's a 1 to 1 death rate, any force against American citizens would run out of soldiers LONG before we ran out of people. And I'm betting it'd be a lot more lopsided than that. Hell, look how many cops get taken out by one guy with an AR

I'm 41 years old....and over the last 4 years I've seen out country essentially collapse on its own stupidity and from greedy companies and politicians. I'm single...and I don't really see things getting significantly better any time soon. If for some reason...just to add fuel to the fire of my hatred for where things are going...they decide to come take my guns...which I bought legally, and became licensed to own and carry....it prolly won't end well for me and at least a few of them. I will die defending the ORIGINAL US Constitution and the liberties it promised me.

Guess it depends on where you live on how things go. The Sheriff here has said he would not enforce a weapons confiscation program. If he is an honest man, the we would not have to fight local law enforcement but would rather have them on our side.

And if I die, then so be it. I would rather stand for something than fall for anything. That is off a song, and I don't remember which one, but it has always struck a chord with me.

I didn't see this song title resolved. IIRC "You've got to stand for something" by Aaron Tippin. You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything. You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string....

I will bring the unfortunate souls that decide to take my weapons a war like they never could have imagined. I will quietly mutter under my breath from the water tower "vaya con dios gents" and I will patiently squeeze off round after round into the head of everyone against me until there is no enemy. I will set off every trap I have in place for them and watch the chaos unfold thru my scope. Sure, my nights will be filled with the nightmares and images of the burning screaming people but i will be comforted in the fact that no one will take my freedom. Live for something or die for nothing. Im glad a few of my fellow patriots understand what it means to stand up for what you believe in no matter the cost.

Prob not a bad idea 4bangen, but I'm sure a short search on the site could prove that untrue! I do find it odd though that the same place that has folks jumping ship to Australia, talking about how doomed we are, about increased gov control, about the majority of folks being freeloaders, etc., are so sure the country would never trample on our gun rights.


if or when the haves have enough and are forced to take the power back from the have nots how do you see the government, that is in place due to the massive number of have nots, responding?

We just learned the majority of the nation supports NDAA, SOPA, NSA, TSA, Homeland security, etc. some 60 million folks just voted for it.

haha jump ship to australia. whoever is doing that must like paying more taxes than in the US.

gun control, whatever. guns can be bought (or made) off the record, or on the record. it's in the governments best interest to keep it legal and not create a huge black market.

just fyi, this site is not exactly a great sample of the general population of the us. sure, if everyone in the country were gun lovers who like to hot rod their cars, plan for dooms day scenarios, and wear american flag sweat pants i'd say the outcome would be very favorable for the masses. instead we live in a country that a huge % of the population relies on the gov. for their basic needs (food, shelter, etc.), those folks would be easy to win over once you cut them off, then you have the folks who just want to survive and will roll over to stay alive, then you'd have the folks who actually support the effort and think guns are the root of all evil, and the list goes on and on. finally you have the dfwmustangs crowd, and even some of these folks would flee the country (dohctr), turn them over, or bunker down and not help the "uprising". so that leaves you with what i'd consider a VERY small % of people who would do jack about it.

how did you come to that conclusion? out of the 20-30 immediate people i know only one is unemployed and collecting unemployment. she got layed off due to cutbacks 2 weeks ago, but knowing her she'll have a job before the application even goes through haha


so who is huge percentage of people are that fully reliant on the gubment?(please dont say all the people in the ghetto cause we all know that it's a small percentage compared to the population. plus most people in the ghetto actually have normal jobs. hard to believe i know)

[dville_gt]

man, that is a hell of a sample if i've ever seen one.

out of all of the people i know right now, i can't think of one that is currently has cancer. must mean cancer has been cured!



some estimates put the number of people on federal aid at 49%, ironically the same % of people who pay no tax. granted most of those folks dont rely on the gov for EVERYTHING, but a lot of those folks would be swayed by the notion of losing whatever support they are receiving.

and to me, if even 5% of the country could not sustain their life's with out the government, that is a HUGE %

[Moose242]

and even some of these folks would flee the country (dohctr)

I know plenty of Rhodesians who are glad to have escaped to other places when their country started going to shit. Same goes for the Vietnamese, Cambodians, Iranians, massive populations of Jews, etc.

Sometimes jumping ship is your best option.

[grove rat]

sorry but i believe that most americans(even the ones who voted for the current potus) will do what's right when the time comes and not roll over or jump ship. sure there will be plenty of them(dohctr) but there will be plenty of those who will not. i will be part of those who will not. i don't care if it's me and one other crazy idiot or millions. if you are okay with just giving up it speaks a lot about your character

not saying that you would or wouldn't but from what i have seen you post it's like you have already given up

you make fun of another persons anecdote and then go on to quote a rush limbaugh sourced graph? makes sense, tells us more.

every definition of jumping ship i know of is basically quitting and abandoning your post/crew to save yourself. it really is a good thing you didn't join the military, you'd be the first person jumping ship when things got rough


let us know how those kangaroos are. seriously.

[Moose242]

I have. I believe that the middle class, which is already diminishing at an astonishing rate, will result in a society so polarized (as far as haves and have nots) that we will resemble a place like Mexico. A war on the haves will be declared just like it had in France, and the people who produce, invest, and cultivate the country's economics are fed the fuck up-
