If everyone who says we should give up some civil liberties (fourth amendment, wiretapping bill) for freedom and safety, will you give up your right to bear arms when/if the government says:
"Terrorists are in our midst. They are in the shadows, hiding in the dark and waiting to strike. We don't know who they are, but we will find them. It is in the best interest of the American people that we disarm them, rendering them almost harmless. This is why it is in the best interest of the American people that we strictly regualte the use and sales of civilian arms. We must limit the flow of arsenal that makes their way into terrorist hands and thus we have to place our hands on the vein that pumps that flow into the terrorist community. Today I ask the American people to report and record the arms held in your homes and, if need be, place them in the hands of our Department of Homeland Security in order to maintain peace of mind that they will not find their way into enemy hands."
