Didn't know this happened after Katrina!!!

It's interesting to read all the "cold dead hands" comments. I'm sure they are well intentioned; but I am equally sure they are unrealistic for the most part. An unorganized, armed citizenry might be able to fend off small groups of rioting rabble; but there is no way for such a group to stand against the resources of the big green machine should martial law be declared.

If they decide to take your guns, they will take them...it's as simple as that. If you choose to oppose them with force, they will take you, too....or worse. Perhaps, you are willing to die for your beliefs; but where does that leave your family once you are gone? For that matter, what happens to your family if you turn your home into a hostile target with your loved ones inside? Don't believe for a moment that LE or military personnel won't return fire if you initiate a fire fight with them. In their minds, they will only be doing their job. If you attempt to prevent them from doing it with force, they will respond with greater force.

God forbid that such events should ever unfold in our Country; but, if they should, don't be naive about the final outcome.

realistic thoughts. I like it. If you wanna have a shootout with the national guard and your local Pd then you are quite stupid. The minute marshal law is put in place all your guns should be hidden. Hide them well. Keep one. One you dont mind losing. When they come around to collect... "here ya go" "thats all I have". Once they leave... re-arm. Nothing to it.

And my feedback score tells you what about a gun collection that I have or have had?

See....That's another example of unrealistic. Nobody has just one.

uh, 16 feedbacks from sellers, 10 from buyers and rest are trades. Assuming you started with zero, you should have at least 6, before any thefts! lol

Are you assuming that I do not have any trades or sales NOT associated with the ODT? Imagine that, being able to do business without the Internet! lol

No, 6 is just the minimum. If you are like anybody else here, I wouldn't be surprise you had 60+
