Never happen. Banning solves nothing. It only opens up law abiding citizen to the mercy of the criminals which WILL get guns no matter what the law is. People would never stand for that.
The majority of Americans actually wants to get rid of guns. Nobody likes to live in constant fear. It's just powerful interest groups and lobbyists that want to maintain the status quo...
Remember after hurricane Katrina? Marshall law. Something like this really happened and when it came down to it the public did nothing but turn em over. That's New Orleans though and it was a different situation. If the president ever made a decision like this our troops are going to have to make a very difficult decision. But the reality is something like this has allready happened. I can only hope that there would be more of our troops who'd oppose it. It would take the United Nations to make this happen along with China, and it wouldn't be pretty.
I'm so glad I'm in Texas right now.
Not really the guard might be called in but no other Mil rep as it is against the CONS. The pres would be skunked, and start a revolution.
Again, how do you explain what happened in New Orleans people? There was marshall law and all guns were taken away. Everyone who claimed they'd never give em up, did. I know it was a different situation but the reality is this has happened and there was no resistance. This is the example that will make them comfortable with a decision like that.
So you think that the President might declare Martial Law for the entire country, and then out the troops to take away our guns?
Martial Law was not declared in New Orleans, by the way. A "State of Emergency" was.
I don't think that anyone was going door to door taking guns...

I can't wait to see you link to the proof of this statement. Go ahead, try.
Seeing as how you are not American, I think Americans know best about what Americans want, which is to keep and bare arms.
As a non-American, I find the laxity of the state of Arizona's gun laws insane.
My initial reaction was shock when I first read about them yesterday. I'm not necessarily anti-gun, but there should be regulations in place, I feel.
I rode my motorcycle across the USA both ways with my wife on back. I got lost in Az and the first guy I saw in open carry was the guy I asked for directions. I knew he was a honest law abiding man just by the fact I could see he had a gun. Currently my son is in the NH Guard and is in Iraq, and somehow how if he were called back here I don't see him coming to my house and removing any guns for the president, or anyone else for that matter.
