yt3, thanks. I have suspected that attacks to the 2A would come quietly, not through grand legislation, but through controlling the means of enforcement, and a coordinated effort to color outside the lines. With ownership of the DOJ in place, there will be no oversight, and the cost to fight violations will be greater than any one person can bear. So even if you have a 2A supportive Judicial, it'll never make it.
We've been looking for the "big push" ... folks here talk about sending out troops to round up your guns. Nope, way too obvious. I just paid $27 for a box of 357 which cost $9 10 years ago (I reload normally but I needed a box). That's just one example. Watch the incidental enforcement of the BATF; the initial confiscation followed by years of process to get them back. Watch the small encroachments. I'm waiting for TSA to ban the transport of firearms and ammo in checked baggage, followed by the mail systems refusing to deliver, or requiring so much money, time and nitpicking ... effectively killing the interstate transfer of firearms for personal or commercial use. So the only way to buy that new gun is to live in the same state as the manufacturer. Sure, it doesn't matter to the folks who live in the same place forever, and never travel at all so they won't pay attention. Eventually, the whole nation will be restricted to storing firearms and ammo in separate containers in your residence or place of sojourn ... you right to keep has been upheld! And you can bear them in your house if you like! That's how it is in Hawaii, the "birthplace" of our President.
