What you describe is the polar opposite of the
Constitutional
Republic Form of governance that the United States operates on.
Again I ask,
who is the
government ?
Let me give you another hint, do the words "We the
People"
have any significance to you ?
To make it clearer, Government does not control The "people", it remains a "servant" of the people, and exists only by
our own graces,
despite how it describes it's self.
If you wish to
continue to be a firearms owner, for whatever purposes you do so, you need to think carefully about what you have been "taught" versus
reality.
ETA: Your time here on TFL may be a great learning experience for you, if you approach things with an open mind, or you may dismiss it as some sort of kooky, fringe extremism, but the threat to your ability to defend yourself, provide food for your family, or enjoy shooting at the range is very real. I merely point this out respectfully, as a fellow firearm enthusiast. and will broach the subject no further in this thread. Apologies for the veer, seemed germane to the topic.
