RE: WEAC/Gun COntrol.

Just a further note on these issues. Why do you assume that if the government was taken suddenly stupid, and decided to "round up all the guns", that the American people would go along with it? There would be firefights in the cities AND the country, and that's not even mentioning the survivalists, and militia groups. The military would be required to pull this off, and since you say that the military would never pull a coup because the individual soldiers wouldn't go along with it, why would they do this? Not to mention the njmber of guns which would be "lost", or "reported stolen", just before the order went into effect.

The same point goes for the U.N. issue. Why do you assume that the American people would go along with this? It shows a complete lack of faith in the American people to think that we would not rise up in protest, and FORCE the government to do what we wished.

Eventually, paranoid fantasy MUST meet up with reality. You have to look at what would ACTUALLY happen, not just what you are afraid MIGHT happen.
