:yeah:

Some jurisdictions may try. 

There is no current reason.  Don't give them one.

It’s an election year.

Martial law won’t help anyone win a popularity contest.

I didn’t even read it but I know what it’s about. People need to quit spreading that crap around it’s what’s leading people to hoard toilet paper and hand sanitizer. First time in my life I am embarrassed of my fellow Americans bunch of weenies it’s a virus most people will be ok. They will probably call out the National guard for medical help that’s one of their roles tons of medics and emts etc to help with health care not shoot someone for leaving their house. Half this country will die in a week if we have a real disaster. Spreading that kind of junk will make things bad if that’s what we want. Your parents and grandparents went to world wars and everyone’s freaking out cuz they asked you to stay home on your couch for a few days. Don’t even get me started on the ammo hoarding it’s a glorified version of the flu.

“They” are already trying, one little tiny bit at a time.  It will never happen in a scenario like this; there are too many firearms out there now.  To try to confiscate in a situation like this would be a dream for some of the preppers among us, and a nightmare for most gun owners like me.

The absolute last thing I want to do is go down fighting, but I will if that’s the only choice.  “They” know that, which is why it will never happen this way.

No, that would be a disaster.


 I have the "go ahead and try" mentality as most here do.  That ends up in a huge mess, especially at a time like this.

Nope, we are protected by the Vitter amendment after Katrina.

Geez! I hope there is never a real invasion of this country. We would be so screwed. Wall to wall snowflakes.

Looks like he just needs a Snickers.

I'm guessing he's not himself when he's hangry.
