> That _is_ the feared result. Do you want to live in a country that can so easily repeal it’s Bill of Rights and send its police forces into peoples’ homes to take away their personal property. You don’t see that as in and of itself something to fear?

And, without recompense. Read this thread\* and the law Kamala Harris said was legal in SF. All guns seized with no recompense. Not even like in Australia.

Also think of the thousands of extra police and extra prisons, even if only 5% dont comply.
