I just had to post because my of my signature! There will be armed resistance in this country if it comes down to confiscation. Maybe not in the "occupied territories" like here in NY or states like Kali and Jersey, but in free states like Montana and Texas. If I am to be branded an extremist for being proud to stand with Jefferson and our other Founding Fathers, then so be it.
"What country before ever existed a century & a half without a rebellion? & what country can preserve it's liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it's natural manure."
-Thomas Jefferson in a letter to William Smith, Nov 13, 1787.

The first step is registration, the second step is confiscation, the final step is subjugation.
