Selco on Gun Confiscation: “Here’s How It Might Actually Go Down”
"Government at its core has the urge to control people in whatever way they can. If you are more armed that means you are less controllable. But if you are acting in a way that you are screaming from the rooftops how you 'will defend your right to have (whatever) weapon (contrary) to the newest law' and how you’ll 'be proud to own it, and to show it' you eventually are not doing yourself any favors. Do you really think that when the time comes that the government will send two pale clerks to search your home looking for whatever weapon?"
