Scruit Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Meh. There are plenty folks who think confiscation is the way to go, and have done for a long time. This is nothing new - we just have the political conditions now that the news will report any controversial opinions to sell copies. If he said that pro-2a folks should have their citizenship revoked then the paper would print 2x as many copies knowing that regardless of people agree with him or not they would still read the story.

ScubaCinci Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 They confiscated guns in NOLA after Katrina. I doubt they would try to do so on a national level. There are too many gun owners that would not go quietly into that good night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSB67 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I don't have the faith that wouldn't happen.I do. If they tried to confiscate without reimbursement, perfectly level-headed people like myself would be making headlines.My dad pointed out an easy solution - do a federal buyback and offer people $4000 for a rifle instead of $400. They can afford it. I'd take that and find a new hobby. Would be much cheaper than the standoff at my house until I ran out of ammo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imaposer Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Since when is it illegal to shoot a cop in the face for attempting to enter my domicile and confiscate my belongings without a warrant?It will be if these whackos manage to get what they want passed. At that point, your choice will be to remain a law abiding citizen and hand over your guns, or become a domestic terrorist and be shot for resisting. Not an easy choice.

They can afford it...Probably cannot afford that. AR15 types alone would cost well over 125 trillion dollars. Add in 90 to 120 "other types" and it's over 10 quadrillion bucks.

Uncle Punk Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 But people didn't get their guns back. The government stole people's guns and they got nothing in return..Not entirely true but accurate for the vast majority, enough so that if it would happen again it would most likely end with a standoff or exchange of bullets, totally dependent on the governments actions. Peace loving people just want to go about their business without the government making their situation more dangerous or being deprived of property.

ReconRat Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) But people didn't get their guns back. The government stole people's guns and they got nothing in return..Hmm, well they were ordered to do so in something like 30-60 days.Will need some research to see how well that worked.edit: Found this:N.O. Police Returning Guns Confiscated Post-KatrinaPublished April 19, 2006Associated PressThe lawsuit was dropped after the city agreed to return the guns. Some owners complained it was difficult to get them back. Gun owners must bring a bill of sale or an affidavit with the weapon's serial number. Police also are running criminal background checks on those claiming weapons. Some gun owners found the weapons were evidence in a crime and not eligible for release. Others did not have the proper paperwork.Firearms confiscated by National Guard required contact with the state of Louisiana. Apparently that's a dead end.
