It will be interesting to look back 4 years from now and see how our predictions and fears have fared. compared to the reality.

**Prediction**

It will not be long into the most merciful one's administration when the next CRISIS occurs that will require drastic measures. It will make the un-Patriot act look like a law against spitting on the sidewalk.

This will not work.

Once they come around looking, the 4th amendment will be negated as well so there will be no asking.

Should confiscation come up in casual conversation, for those who propose to confiscate firearms, suggest that the ones who want the firearms confiscated do the actual confiscation, or else ask whose son, daughter, mother or father they are going to send to do the confiscation. This can tend to put this issue in the proper perspective.

As I recall the oath said enemies "foreign and domestic".

They can broaden the definition of domestic enemy, but I take it to mean the same as the Founders meant.

There would be several states with resistance, but it will not be as widespread as you would like it to be.

Too many people in their comfort zone of "reality tv" and other distractions.

I would immediately presume that the 2nd Amendment had been repealed.

Even if the 2A was repealed you would still have the RKBA.

The BOR just states the rights that exist. The right was given to us by our Creator. The BOR also does not state all of our rights.

If the government takes the stance that all firearms must be confiscated then.....the government is repealed.
