hate to break it to you, but if gun owners think they're going to stop the government with their pea shooter (by comparison) they're fucking nuts.

He asked what disarming the masses would look like. No need for much imagination.

That's SlyPokerdog's M.O. Say shit to sound like he's a hipster but act like he's not one, and that he's much smarter than he is, and in the end come off sounding like a dumb fuck.

yeah, but the point is, the government wouldn't NEED to disarm the masses. They already own far more weapons and bombs than the masses do.

If they wanted to, they could take away the guns on a whim.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Thank you for using SlyPokerDog.

Yeah, because all the conflicts we've been in with armed citizens have been cake-walks.

Most military members I know own guns personally. Do you see the military as a whole getting into an armed conflict with pro-gun citizens over taking away their guns? Seriously?
 
Since I have an ax to grind, and since I have this soapbox here, this is clearly the one and only source of the problem

IEDs.

Sheer numbers. 2.5M military vs. 350M+ enemies.

I bet most of the military would desert.

That's because they're limited in what they can do. if they're taking away the guns, it's obviously because the government has become tyrannical. And if it has, it wouldn't care about who they killed.

Point being, the government isn't going to take away guns, won't try to take away guns and hasn't ever tried to.

There are 350 million guns, not that 350 million americans own guns.

We've had this discussion before, I dunno why I bother. Saying we need guns to protect us from the government, and then saying we would protect ourselves with things like IEDs and other illegal forms of weapons just seems incredibly stupid to me. I thought the legal guns were enough to stop the evil tyrannical government. And if they're not, then why is that the reason put forth? Why not say we should all get nukes, and have one giant nuclear standoff between the citizens and the government, just in case.

Armed citizenry has kept the government honest for the most part.

Our military has been fighting an army of 30,000 in Iraq and Syria and isn't winning. Not winning in Afghanistan, either.

The nukes schtick is just silly.

The nukes mention is just as silly as comparing our armed populace to the armed terrorists in middle east as if they possess only what is legal to own in the US
 
Looks like the shooter went to a school for kids with "learning disabilities" and "emotional issues" in a class of 5.

Lists of Daily Breeze graduates from 2009 showed Harper-Mercer graduated from the Switzer Learning Center in Torrance with four other students. Switzer teaches students with learning disabilities and emotional issues.

From their website:
http://www.switzercenter.org/students-on-autism-spectrum

In 2012, the Center for Disease Control announced that one in every 88 children nationwide has been diagnosed to have an Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) that causes serious social, behavioral, and communication problems. Since ASD includes literally a wide spectrum of impairments in social interactions, communication and restricted behaviors, individual ability levels vary greatly across developmental and age levels.

Our middle and high school students in the Spectrum Program, and our 18-22 year old SAIL Transition students have been diagnosed with ASD ranging from mild to severe levels of functioning. They all exhibit behavior and learning challenges which require more intense interventions than what can be provided in a public school setting. Some students need assistance with basic life and hygiene skills. Others with low or non-verbal communication skills use assistive speech devices.

Assymetric warfare. It's not a difficult concept.
 
as long as the 2nd ammendment covers my ability to own IEDs and such
