The 2nd Amendment is CRUCIAL in keeping the Gvt at bay. With them KNOWING just how strong firearm and ammo sales are, is putting the BIG FEAR in them. The longer we continue this trend, the larger the fear. There's no way they would chance an all out assault on every person who has 'registered' weapons let alone the millions that don't 'register'.
I firmly believe that all these OWS 'protests' are a dry run to see how easy and effectively they can fire up a counter-resistance to OUR resistance. USEFUL IDIOTS.....
NOTE; I do NOT condone anarchy nor violent protests in any form.
