So now someone finally stated the plan in plain English. Mandatory gun buy-back or the take them by force? I can see why Texans didn't vote for Beto. "Come and Take It"
How can you buy back something you never owned?

You can simply ignore an unconstitutional law.
They WILL follow orders. A handful may quit, but very few will give up their cushy benefits and pensions. They will not be our friends.Trying to remember somethin gn I read. I may have it wrong.
It was something about how many gun owners we have vs. the number of military and Leo's.
As I mentioned before, many of those will not be eager to confiscate.
AD, I think a few will do it. Very few. Most will ignore it unless you're waving it in their face. By profession, police officers might be one of the largest owners of AR15's & AK47s! They'd hate to be hypocrites, and you know they're not going to be turning their own in either.
That is an excellent point. "Buy back" is a complete misnomer. It pretty much assumes that the government is the rightful owner of everything and anything a citizen possesses they do so by the grace of the government. . . last time I checked this isn't medieval England. A better term might be compensated theft.How can you buy back something you never owned?
Sorry Tex but I disagree. Not all police Chiefs are supporters of the second amendment, any more than all county sheriff's are second amendment supporters. The rank and file probably wouldn't turn in their guns but they will follow orders from their superiors. Like I said before; they won't put their pensions and benefits at risk over a law just because they may not agree with it. The little people simply aren't important enough for the cops to risk their retirement over. If they are ordered to start confiscating firearms, they will follow orders and confiscate your firearms.AD, I think a few will do it. Very few.

Do you think it would be worth risking there life over obeying an unconstitutional order?Sorry Tex but I disagree.

I think there'd be very little risk to the individual cop. Because there wouldn't be just one cop showing up at your door there'd be several of them. Besides, most Americans wouldn't put up a fight, they'd just roll over. Unless they came for their beer, cigarettes, sports channels, cell phones, welfare/food stamps or internet, most will do little more than just whimper about the loss of their firearms. Nobody has the backbone to band together now days either, no matter how unconstitutional the law may be.Do you think it would be worth risking there life over obeying an unconstitutional order?
Hey our long bows were 100% owned by the English and Welsh archers not the gumintThat is an excellent point. "Buy back" is a complete misnomer.

You guys are coming across as slightly naive over your understanding of Socialist politicians, They dont respect your laws or constitution, they will open ignore laws meant to preserve your rights. look at the UK the Democratically elected government of the day was told with absolute clarity in 2016 that the PEOPLE wanted to leave the EU and voted than way in a referendum. Three years on they have lied, cheated, fenagled, obfuscated, delayed, deceived to ensure the democratic will of the people is Ignored.
Going back further about 25 years the EU announced a pan European harmonisation of its gun laws, they stated the laws would be standardised and LIBERALISED to ensure all citizens had the right to own guns of NON MILITARY calibres................. They LIED and your lefties WILL lie to you, They WILL ignore your constitution.
I mean no disrespect guys but you really dont get just how nefarious and devious socialists are, You guys are expecting them to have the same morals, scruples and principles that YOU have and thats you fatal flaw.
Hey Gaz. Hope you are good?
Eh, been better. But what can ya do....
I pay attention to this crap about gun control,,,and hell yes there will be a rash of new laws and bans come into effect but not until after the 2020 election,Trump wants a second term so he will drag his feet until he gets it or loses the office,,,,,,,,,,,the Democrats win and it will be much worse
