    More alarmist "pearl-clutching" from the old white guys. Don't you know that gun confiscation can't happen in America? I learned it on INGO (from young Millennial gun owners like Chester & that cop guy). Sigh...the NRA is just scaring you for donations.

    Yup, people deemed mentally dangerous enough to not own weapons reacting to LE showing up unannounced to take their firearms? Glad I am not California LE.

    You know some of the prime targets (to turn in) are going to be that "crazy uncle Mike, who has way too many guns and looks at Alex Jones' website all day". This has potential to end badly for a lot of people on the pointy end of enforcement.

    And when someone does inevitability shoot agents of the state, they will point to it and say, "See. He was dangerous. It's a good thing we are here to take guns away from unstable people like this."

    To the gun grabbers it will simply self-justify their position even further.

    True. But the gun grabbers won't be doing the taking. You start getting a few guys shot every other time you go to this, enforcement starts to look like a losing proposition.

    I am not saying that will happen, and I am CERTAINLY not hoping for it, but think of how much different prior societal overreaches would have been if a few less enforcers came back every raid. Gulag Archipelago, anyone?

    “And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

    I can see this being used as a preemptive strike by a vindictive spouse filing for divorce, or a spurned lover after a breakup. SWATing by SJWs also comes to mind. Just imagine the power a grumpy neighbor or deceitful co-worker/employee now has. They can now deliver through a false accusation, a mountain of pain, frustration and piles of legal fees, because they know you own firearms. We are now living in a world of pre-crime where guilt is automatic, despite the facts.

    Wake me when Indiana starts adopting California-style gun laws.

    At a certain level, I feel bad for Californians. And yet, not really.

    I feel badly for the Californian gun owners. They are not the ones who elected these bozos. They are the victims of the liberal majority there.

    Kinda sounds like a 'no - fly' list for gun owners, doesn't it.
