Guys,
I went through this here in Florida. We had the police chief of Miami in his former role as a member of the legislature put forth a new law to seize all semi auto guns in the state and the legislature was to vote on the law. I took a Suburban full of folks over to Tallahassee and we with 50,000 other folks stood on the capitol steps for a little rally. We heard many speeches and some made the hair on your neck stand up. This is how the real commitment shakes out and it can be no other way:
....I am not going to give up my guns without a fight. You will have to send someone onto my property to take my guns, by force. I fully expect to be killed in the fight and fully understand that you are going to kill me.... but you must understand that I am going to kill many of you before I die. So when you come on my property for my guns, make very sure you come prepared to die with me....
Now what good is a pistol against an army? After 50,000 people on the capitol steps took the above oath, every sheriff in the state, in writing, stated they would not send one deputy to enforce the law if it was passed. I was there and I saw it first hand. Commit to die if necessary and be vocal and the message gets through loud and clear. It is like slapping a politician in the face. Consequences to their action gets their attention.
