Default Who are we dealing with here?

I've got a few hypothetical questions for you. The reason I'd like to see your answers (and so should others) is to figure out if we are REALLY in this thing together. No, your answers are not right or wrong and should not follow my own. Just curious.


If hunting license fees were raised to unreachable levels nation-wide, let's say $5,000 for a deer tag, would you start poaching? (Hunting with the methods you use now without having a tag in other words)


Given the opportunity to buy an unregistered firearm, would you buy it?


Let's say that we will all live long enough to see the day they come for our guns - would you stand by your gun-bearing neighbor to fight for your guns, with your guns?


Do you favor a bio-chip system preceeding a cashless society?

No, I have a fear of being arrested

yes, and I have, so has just about anyone who has bought a used firearm

Hard one to answer, on one hand I would like to think that I would, on the other it's hard to raise a family if you are dead. I would say they can come for my guns, but they will never find them. What they will find is a angry german shepard that bites when provoked by the wrong person.

I'm not sure. If fees were raised that incredibly high for no reason other than to line somebody's pockets, maybe. I'm gonna have to think about that one. That's an unbelievable amount of money to my family.

Yes. I have and would again.

That's another really hard question. I definitely wouldn't give them up. I know I would hide them. It would depend on the climate of the nation probably. If I felt things were heading quickly in a dangerous direction, yes, I would fight alongside my neighbor (who, by the way, has probably more firepower in his house than most of the rest of town combined!)

Absolutely not!!! That I would definitely take up arms against if it was forced upon my family.

Yes


Yes

No. Now you know they are not going to do this.....until after they've accomplished the act in question # 3! If they get as far as confiscation of our firearms....you'll have no viable means of resistance. And it's amazing how few people will fight in question # 3. And how few would give a second thought to having a chip implanted! There has already been some talk about requiring a "chip" be implanted, for identification and safety, for all new borns! And surprisingly....many people like the idea!?!? (And of course if it becomes law....it would be considered "child endangerment"......not to comply!)

I think I would start to poach. The stuff just tasts too good and the thrill is what I really want. Hunting with a camera is just not the same.

I would buy an unregistered gun. But I would NOT buy it just because it was unregistered.

I am not shure if I would fight with real bullets. I think it would depend on the manner that it was implimented in. They might show up and find bullets flying or they might not find anything.

I don't think a cashless society is a good thing. And I KNOW that a bio-chip is a bad thing except posibly for convicted criminals.

I would poach only if I find out that I have terminal cancer and I will hunt the best unit I can find. On the money issue I doubt it unless it was clear that the non hunting majority was doing it to cancel all hunting.

I prefer to buy gently used guns as I want mine to be unregistered.

Yes I will fight for my guns and freedom if it gets down to total repression and all the other big brother crap.

No way on the chip and I am willing to fight hard against that stuff too. I didn't even like to give my fingerprints.[:@]

Depends on how effective enforcement was.

Of course I would.

I don't know, it's easy to talk tough when the possibility is slim. I just can't answer that question.

Probably not, but we are moving towards a cashless society.

#1 - Yes, hunting is a big part of my life ,and just like my guns, I am not willing to give it up to make politicians wealthy.

#2 - Yes, I prefer to have my guns unregistered. If they don't know who has it they don't know where to come to get it.

#3 - Yes, If I had to. But this question can be answered by question #2.

#4 - absolutly not! No way, no how, would I allow my myself or my family to have biochips implanted.

I don't really understand how we could actually have a cashless society. Would we go back to trading corn for beads?
