Since they know that a full-on frontal attack on your right to self defense won't work, they first remove the guns that they are most afraid can be used to repel what they eventually intend to do to you.

Then, after you are weakened sufficiently, piece by piece, and the "government" has all the real means of real coercive force, they will move to take them ALL.

The very PURPOSE of the 2nd Amendment is to PREVENT this VERY thing.


"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined." - Patrick Henry -
