So the New Biden/Harris Gun policies are starting to appear. It’s not clear yet, what they will be.
Some suggestions; Confiscate all guns.------Buyback programs in each State.
There is much talk on social media that if this happens, the pandemic, + all the riots, + all the damaged property, + all the annual murders in America, - put together-will be like a Sunday afternoon picnic, compared to all the deaths and property damage that will result because of “Civil Uprising” by millions of 2nd amendments advocates and just plain Gun Lovers. Americans love guns!
This is one reason why now they are considering a tax fee on magazines over 5 rounds, and a tax fee on all AR 15 and semi-automatic pistols instead of confiscating all guns. Suggested fees between $200 to $800 dollars per magazine and per gun----every year.
Another suggestion is start limiting the amount of ammo manufactures can produce per year. This would make the price of ammo out of the reach of your average citizen but at the same time, the second amendment would not be in danger of being infringed. It would come down to the fact that only those who can afford it, can own guns legally.
It’s a known fact that if civil war was to break, it would be impossible for any Federal Government military to go into any State and start killing these 2nd amendments guerrilla fighters. Reason being, how could anyone distinguish who is who. A civil war today, would be far different than the country’s first Civil war. It would not be a matter of the South vs the North. A war today would be Guerrilla warfare with millions of hidden 2nd amendments advocates spread across and mixed in with the police dept, the military, politicians, members of the legislature, doctors, nurses, business owners, sports world, teens, women, grandma’s, every group you can think of will have some 2nd amendment advocates.
This civil war if it ever happened, would be a form of irregular warfare in which small groups of combatants, such as paramilitary personnel, armed civilians, or irregulars, use military tactics including ambushes, sabotage, raids, petty warfare, hit-and-run tactics, and mobility, to fight a larger and less-mobile traditional military, and this would inspired fear on just about everybody. No one would be exempt.
The Military could just not go and bomb a State or any city for fear of reprisals by the rest of the country for killing innocent men, women, and children. No one would be safe, not even politicians with 1,000 armed personal. To pursue such a course in the USA today would just decimate the entire country’s infrastructure, food production, tax revenue collection, military, thus leaving the country vulnerable to other countries like North Korea for invasion.
“Non-compliance with gun-confiscation laws has been widespread, even in countries that don’t protect the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. What can we learn from Non-compliance countries whose Government issued bans on semi-automatic rifles, such as New Zealand? Well, in 2019 a terrorist killed 51 unarmed worshipers in two Christchurch New Zealand, mosques, and the government immediately imposed sweeping new gun-control laws. New Zealand banned the civilian possession of most semi-automatic rifles. The Council of Licensed Firearms Owners estimated, that New Zealanders possessed roughly 170,000 Firearms at the time of the ban. Yet the New Zealand buyback has not gone smoothly. Many New Zealanders simply refused to comply. By the end of February 2020, well after the final amnesty period ended in December 2019,police data indicated that only 57,000 firearms—about one-third of the total—had been turned in.
Worse, it appears that New Zealand managed to disarm only the most law-abiding of its citizens, and not the actual criminals or terrorists doing the crime.
Australia similarly banned the civilian possession of most semi-automatic firearms in 1996, but the country has spent the last two decades trying—and to a significant extent, failing—to enforce it.
What about the USA?
If this type of significant and widespread non-compliance is so common in countries without America’s gun culture or constitutional protections for civilian gun ownership, it would be almost laughable to presume Americans would be more compliant with overbearing gun-control measures.
After all, civilian gun possession is deeply INGRAINED in the American PSYCHE, as is an aversion to gun confiscation. The American Revolution itself officially ignited over an effort by King George III and his military generals to disarm the colonists.
Americans are increasingly aware that lawfully owned semi-automatic rifles are fundamentally not a driving force behind homicides in this country, or anywhere else.
Nearly two out of every three deaths by firearms in the United States are the result of suicide. In cases of suicide, neither gun type nor magazine capacity ultimately matters; moreover, while it is true that the U.S. has a fairly high rate of suicides committed with firearms, our overall suicide rate is relatively unremarkable compared with many countries with much stricter gun-control laws.
Semi-automatic rifles, such as the AR-15, are responsible for only a fraction of 1% of all gun deaths in the U.S. every year, while rifles of any kind account for about 3% of all gun homicides.
And finally, a majority of crimes committed with guns in the U.S. are carried out by individuals who are already prohibited from owning firearms—not by lawful gun owners.
Trying to take away the guns of an American Gun loving, 2nd Amendment rights advocate, is like trying to force ALL- Exjw to go back to the Watchtower religion and be in complete subjection to the Governing body and its appointed elders.
With that in mind, what kind of gun laws would make 2nd amendment advocates and Gun lovers Happy.
