[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 2422270, member: 24446"] We all say we know what WE would do but when there's a half dozen armed troopers at your door with the legal backing to gun you down if need be, how many people are actually going to say "it ends here, I will gun down these troopers before I let them take my guns!" and then actually do it, leaving their family fatherless? That citizen may get all the troopers right then but we all know what happens afterwards. That one step is a huge step and for that first person to take it is going to be far harder than most of us think. Most folks are honest and it isn't in their nature to actually pull a trigger and shoot a fellow citizen, I'm not saying they aren't justified by their 2A rights, I'm just saying it'll far, far, far more difficult that people think it will be. That said, it will likely be a domino effect in one direction or the other. That first person or two that resist and pay the price will either create a huge movement to continue resisting or to give in. So think about it, really put yourself in the footsteps of someone in Connecticut, a father with a family, who's doorbell rings and it's time to actually draw arms on law enforcement or begrudgingly surrender your arms. What would you do? [/QUOTE]
