I need to be taught to be more paranoid about gun registration

Or "they" could merely get a hold of the NRA membership list. That may just inform "them" who MIGHT have or at least had a firearm. May not be a legal maneuver but that has not bothered "them" in the past.

Thank you dwalker...

For those people who say "I lost/sold XYZ", I'll buy some tampons specifically for you...

I agree with this. Rather than the "lost them", "sold them", "hate them", "keep a throw down to give up to the searchers" responses that tends to divide us and show weakness, shouldn't the responses read more like "I have a shit ton of guns, thousands upon thousands of rounds of ammo, a well trained family support system that's "all in" and the willingness to defend EVERY DAMN BIT OF IT. If you keep chipping away at our rights afforded by the Constitution that OUR families have shed blood to defend (and most likely yours too) you will not walk away from this unscarred. However, should you decide to cease your attack on our country from within you and I will both simply part ways and go on about our day."

Sure seems like THAT is the united message we should be yelling from the mountaintops.

I have no doubt that the current traitors in office, both federally and local, would wipe their asses with the U.S. constitution and do whatever the hell they want to. Innocent until proven guilty only applies if you are a pedophile, drug dealer or stupid...er sorry, liberal democrap. Gun owning freedom loving patriots are guilty until they can pile more shit on to make us more guilty.

Thank you both... I'm reminded of that adage "If there was a time to bury your guns, now is the time to dig them up... and start becoming proficient with them." Don't people realize that the 2nd is not just to restrict what the government can do, but also remind them that WE have the power to pull back on their reigns, violently if need be? "I lost my guns" sounds a lot like cowardess in the face of creeping tyranny. History is full of wonderful lessons- The Empire of Japan feared invading the US homeland because "There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass." Guess what kids, a rifle behind every door in Anytown, USA also would force, as the OP stated JBF, to have a moment of pause before encroaching on this sacred, natural right. YMMV... But I hold my guns close and train, train, train... then for a change of pace, I train some more so that IF the time ever came, my shots would count.

While I absolutely agree with you in principle, practicality is another matter. The practical facts are that the govt has shown it has no scruples about murdering it's own citizens (Waco, Ruby Ridge, 9-11 etc etc etc) and an individual is not equipped to resist on his own. When the winds of confiscation begin blowing, how is one person going to stand up and declare they are exactly the type of target these motherless liberals are looking for? Expecting them to back down and say "Oh... here's a man who stands tall and resists us... we should shamefacedly turn around and leave." is naive. That person will be shot while "resisting arrest", their assets seized, kids sold to the foster-care indoctrination machine, and the entire incident will make little more than a "domestic terrorist thwarted" byline in the news.

The only way bold-faced resistance will fly is if there's a movement large enough to take notice of, and it can unite together uniformly enough to make the bullies take pause and consider the ramifications of all out war on a law-abiding demographic of their constituency. That's going to be the challenge - coming together like that in an organized fashion.
