When the government decides to take your guns away they do! They don't care about any stinking amendments or the constitution! All they have to do is declare an emergency or Marshal Law and it's done! Then armed citizens become their enemy?! Why? Because the one's with the guns have the power! Listen to this... In the aftermath of Katrina, the New Orleans Police, National Guard troops, and U.S. Marshals confiscated firearms. “Guns will be taken. Only law enforcement will be allowed to have guns,” New Orleans Police Superintendent Eddie Compass declared as he prepared to violate the Second Amendment. The National Guard conducted warrantless house-to-house searches, targeting not just Hurricane-hit areas under the pretext of stopping violent looters, but also high and dry homes that were not even affected by the storm.
GUN CONTROL
All gun control laws are just for politicians to say they have done something! It also makes anti-gun advocates feel good! But the truth be told it has no effect on violence in our society! Our society was built on the back of guns, from the Minute Men during the revolutionary war all way through winning the wild, wild west with the Colt revolver ( the great equalizer) and the Winchester repeater rifle! Also remember that the North won the war of attrition against the south because they could make more and better guns faster than the south could! You could also say that the revolutionary war was started over gun control when a British General was told the colonist had guns and munitions stored in Concord MA he sent 700 troops to seize them. When British Major John Pitcairn arrived at Lexington, which was on the way to Concord, he found 70 American minutemen (actually, they were almost all farmers) in battle formation at the town square (armed with their own personal guns!). Pitcairn ordered the Americans to disperse but when they didn’t move after the second order to do so, someone fired a shot. It is not known if the shot was fired by Americans or British. The British easily cleared Lexington and marched on to Concord. He found more Americans arming the bridge (here again armed with their own personal weapons!) into the town so Pitcairn order the British to return to Boston. All the way back to Boston, the Americans sniped at the British from behind trees and rocks, inflicting serious injury to the British troops. When the Redcoats reached Boston, 250 had been killed or wounded. So when the British tried to disarm the colonist the war started! Let’s hope this doesn’t happen again!?
