They may restrict new manufacturing or sales, but no one is going to go door to door to get your guns. And why would they? Do you really think the federal gov't is afraid of its citizens with firearms? Think again. What could all those Texans do with their guns against the gov't? Oh, that's right--die. But the gov't isn't going to go after guns if they want to oppress people. They'll simply shut off the water, the electricity, put some drones over your property and wait you out. Or just send in tanks to crush you. Texans are so full of self importance. We're Texans!! Everybody LOOK!!! We have guns and we gonna fight the federal gubmin! No. Get real. Perhaps in 1789 people armed with muskets could fight off other people with muskets, but in 2012 AR-15s won't stand a chance against F-16s, Predator Drones, and M1 Abrams tanks. The only way gov't tyranny will be fought is by patriots on the inside and computer hackers and massive peaceful nonviolent resistance. Forget about the guns, except maybe to fend off mutant mauraders. [/quote] Yes send tanks to the farms and suburbs... Brilliant PR move... Your truly arrogant. [/quote] no he/she is just a agenda driven liberal...and no thats not a political statement.. [/quote] [i] Yes send tanks to the farms and suburbs... Brilliant PR move... Your truly arrogant.[/i] [b]I beg to differ with this statement: that's exactly what Mr. Janet did in a little town called Waco, Texas. killed innocent women and children. that was straight up reno/atf tanks and firebombs. the local constabulary were told to stand down. was this slaughter of innocents to send a message?[/b] ps. while I know nothing of the values at the country compound, I defend their rights to a retreat as much as I do freedom for buddists to have a monastery here.

Video Reference for today's overheard conversation during my lunch.
EDIT: A Video a commenter on here showed me. Seemed very on the spot.
I love going out to eat here in Texas. We have a ridiculously high selection of restaurants to choose from so I have the luxury of most time being able to eat at a place I've never eaten before.
That being said I must say the chatter I've picked up through the last month or so have been in one word... INSANE!
Everyone and I mean EVERYONE is talking about how they can't stand what our government has become. Yes Obama is a big part of it but it's more than that now. They say it's the entire system practically!
Today I overheard a big group of people talking about the newly signed UN treaty banning guns. They were talking about what they would do if someone ever came to take theirs away and it wasn't pretty...
I just want to say this now... NO one is going to accept that here...
This leads me to wonder... Is this planned?... I can't imagine our government wouldn't know the reaction of the people if they were to try and do a gun ban...
This makes me curious that what if they are trying on purpose to piss the country off into a violent confrontation? I honestly don't know what the benefit of that would be but they can't surely be so stupid to think that half the country would rather die than lose their defensive tools?
I don't really know a solution to either side but I'm telling this chatter is not just small talk. These people are dead serious about this and everyone is getting grouped up on the same idea. I heard many heres heres in response to this groups conversation. Remember I usually go to a new restaurant everytime so it's not the same people I'm hearing this from it seems to be everyone around here.
Has anyone else heard from the general population talk like this?
