re: Alternate explanation for gun control

The problem they have with this scenario is that these law enforcement, HS, ATF, FBI, whoever, do not live behind castle walls. And we outnumber and outgun them massively.

Let's get real here. If it comes down to you seeing this scenario going down and realizing that this is probably going to happen to you and yours soon... are you going to just wait for it or are you going to step out and blow that collaborator down the street off his lawn mower then fade back into the crowd?

When they kill your kid in an illegal raid, are you going to be worried about what happens to theirs?

This is why you have sheriffs all across the country saying HELLLLLL NO to this shite. We know where they live. We can take them out at any time. If each of us were to do one single assassination towards this end, can you imagine the paralyzing panic? 2 DA's and a wife get shot in Texas and it's total fricking meltdown over there now. Couple of morons with an AR and a car practically shut down the east coast all by themselves. One ex cop kills a few cops or their family in California and it's full blown shite fit. Take that times a thousand and imagine the panic amongst those who would dare to try this against us.

Yeah, that's not really something anyone wants to think about or do, but when it's your family or theirs... they are in deep shite. And with social media being almost completely uncontrollable, this idea could be disseminated overnight and go like wildfire across the whole country. A thousand people walk out the next day and snuff one that they happen to know where he lives. Government shuts down immediately. It's over that day.

If you were on their side, would you show up for work the next day or would you find another way to make a living?

THIS is the true power of the Second Amendment.

It's not pretty. It's brutal. But it's absolutely effective. And it could not be stopped as long as you don't wait till you no longer have that option.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

And I guess I'd better give the standard disclaimer that we aren't there yet. We aren't even close. But like the video pointed out, the fact that every time they try something we just buy more guns and more ammo is an indication to those who would try this that this is a very real scenario and one they can't win. So I have a hard time with these conspiracy theories. Although IMHO HS and ATF should both be disbanded.

Bureaucracies are capable of monstrous stupidity.
