What would you do if the police came to confiscate your guns...?

Question

the War in Iraq doesn't seem likely to end soon. permanent military bases have already been set up all over the country & Iraq is an important strategic stronghold for the US

with Iran about to flood the market with cheap oil, the US intends to attack them to stop the oil prices going down. this event will enable Bush to bring in emergency martial law in the US & stay for 6 more months.

the controversial Model State Emergency Health Powers Act, passed in October 2001 gives Governors 'Emergency' Power.

the US Constitution will no longer be applicable.

This New Law allows the:

Prohibition of firearms

Entering of private property & seizure of belongings

Are you ready for all this?

If this happened, what would your reaction be?

Answer 1

Hitler stated that an unarmed society is easy to control. We have a sayin in texas, "you can have my gun when you pry it from my cold dead hand"!

Answer 2

When it comes to this there will be a revolution. This is why we have guns and lots of them. Isn't there like 250,000,000 privately owned firearms in America? I hope everyone is ready.

Answer 3

It appears that no matter how prepared you think you are, nobody will be able to do anything once things have progressed to this level.  I believe it is coming and there is still time to prevent it, but with the majority being comprised of moronic sheeple, it looks pretty hopeless at this point.  If not for my family, I’d go down in a blaze of glory.  But, when you have loved ones depending on you it gets more complicated.  

I’ve read a lot about the Founding Fathers of this country and the sacrifices they made that we might enjoy a free society and it makes me sick to watch how recklessly people today just take it all for granted.  In a way this society as a whole deserves to be overthrown.  Until you feel the pain, you won’t appreciate the pleasure of something as sweet and simple as freedom.  I wish we had a few people in high office that have the knowledge, vision, integrity, and strength of Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Adams, and later in time, Lincoln, just to name a few.

Answer 4

What would I do.?

Not everyone has a gun.

Some people shouldn't have children, none the less a gun.

But they still seem to get a hold of them.

Competent people yes, but not everyone.

Bad apples spoil the barrel......look at the ones in the news.

Never had a criminal record.

Answer 5

id say they can take my guns when im out of bullets and that will be a while or i can tell them pick a bullet 30-06,12 gaugue 20 gaugue, 22, 270.

Answer 6

They're not getting my gun.  Because when they do... it's off to the FEMA camps!

And for the guy who said "you tube c**p"... I thought I would never see the day when VIDEO evidence isn't good enough for people.  You tube is an excellent source of information.  You just have to use your head and always consider the source of the video.  Lot's of video clips come from MSNBC, ABC, and CSpan.  So just because they're on You-tube now you believe they're suddenly Unbelievable?

Answer 7

Well, since I only have one, and I haven't used it in over 5 years,  I guess I'd give it to them!  I don't really think the government wants my gun, though.  You must be a member of the NRA, huh?

Answer 8

kerosene and fertilizer

Answer 9

One day your scenario will come true but its not going to be under bush ! I'm thinking more like another 10-20 years.

And I will not come with my hands upon my head but with my finger on the trigger!

You can bet it will be by Socialist , "For the good of Society!"!

Answer 10

First, you must be kidding! Citing youtube c**p as if it was real? You need to revisit your psychiatrist, maybe he can give you different medication to help control your paranoid delusions. Or maybe you just need to loosen your aluminum foil hat.

Answer 11

Thats sounds really scary.  I live in Canada and apparently we are getting a similar law.  It seems like they are making more and more laws so they can have more control over us.  There is chaos all over the world, and while things are still unsteady the governments can change things the way they want it to be.  I'm not totally sure how I would react, I know I would be really frickin pissed off if they did that.  This whole war on terror is to find more excuses to control the people more, make the people afraid, and make money on oil.  Goerge Bush is the biggest terrorist in the world.  Taking away the peoples guns is to take away their protection.  If the government decides to send everyone away to concentration camps or something, the people won't be able to do a d**n thing about it.  "People should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people."

Answer 12

Number 1.  I doubt that many police officers would be interested in going house to house to collect guns.  Aside from the fact that most rank and file police officers are supporters of the Second Amendment, I think it would be a rather dangerous job.  Also, I don't think that the US military would want to get involved.  Most military members take their oath to the Constitution much more seriously than do most of our politicians.

I think that they would have to resort to mercenaries like Blackwater.  These people are not overly concerned about the legalities of abusing the rights of people, as long as they think that they will not be held accountable.

And secondly:  I think any attempt by our politicians to impose martial law, and to tell us that the Constitution no longer applies would be viewed as an attempted coup by those politicians.  In other words, any attempt to impose martial law is an attempt to establish a dictatorship.

The day the politicians actually try to disarm the American people, all bets are off.  Anyone trying to take your firearms by force is probably planning to kill you.

What do you think would happen to an individual who tried to take a police officer's firearm?  What action would you expect that police officer to take?  Do you think that he would attempt to use deadly force to prevent his weapon from being taken?

American citizens are in the same position.  The Supreme Law of the Land, the Constitution guarantees the right of self defense, and that equates to the Second Amendment.  Self defense is a self-evident right.  It is obvious that we all have the right to protect our lives.  Any force trying to disarm a free people is a danger to those people.

Answer 13

If you violate the Constitution and move in aggression against US citizens, you are no longer a police officer, you become an enemy combatant against the Republic. Attempting to disarm the population should be viewed as an act of aggression by a tyrannical government, and is equal to treason. I don't care what kind of badge you wear. No one is above the Constitution.

I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

Answer 14

"guns, what guns.  Your records must be wrong"
