Who Will Confiscate the Guns?

On one hand, I might scoff at anyone who raises the specter of Americans having their guns confiscated or being moved into a FEMA concentration camp. On the other hand, gun confiscation has already taken place on a limited scale as you can see in the video below. And Japanese Americans were put into concentration camps during WWII.

A couple of points I’d like to make about the video. I know people who claim that an overwhelming majority of cops are great, freedom-loving Americans who would never in a million years confiscate anyone’s guns. On the other hand, when it comes down to it, there is no shortage of cops willing to confiscate guns. It’s not bikers who will confiscate guns, or crackheads or Mexican drug cartels or inner-city gangs.

If there is ever a gun confiscation or mass internment into concentration camps, it will be Mr. local sheriff’s deputy or police officer. George Soros, Obama, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, or Harry Reid won’t be confiscating anyone’s guns.

I would hope many cops will refuse to obey such orders or enforce unjust laws, but there is ZERO evidence that any of them are willing to disobey orders. And, they certainly aren’t building up any spine in refusing to enforce unjust laws and orders now. They seem to be doing exactly what they’re told. It seems to be a human tendency to talk big about the bold, decisive actions we’ll take on the hill worth dying on until we get there. Cops are no exception.

My second point is that when the cops ask if you have a gun, it is not in your best interest to answer the question. You have no obligation to answer any question from the police. Whether you refuse to answer, or lie is something I will leave between you and the Lord, but I can think of two examples of people who have lied to government in Scripture and ended up in the Faith Hall of Fame of Hebrews 11.

I admit that it might cause problems to refuse to answer questions from police, but how much worse could it be than telling the truth like the people in this video did? We need to all get in the habit and get the gumption up to tell cops that we don’t answer their questions.
