Are the Red Flag laws going to be people’s line in the sand?

Is it red, Swingline?

Twenty years ago firearms and outdoor sports were safe subjects of conversation at the bar, at dinner parties, at social gatherings, etc. Now you gotta refrain from even mentioning to someone who might be "the wrong people." Used to be you could talk about guns with your liberal friends without hearing a lecture about how "nobody needs an AR15". It's not that way anymore. I don't know how old you are, but I wish I could show people what it was like in the eighties and nineties when the MSM and the liberal politicians hadn't demonized gun owners to the point that you had better not admit you own guns in front of certain people.

I dunno... maybe it's just me but I can't remember a time when something firearms was brought up randomly at a bar or other social gatherings. Even amongst gun owning friends.

Nope.

I've asked this question before. There won't be a red line, ever. If we get a NZ type ban, most will just bury them or hand them in. The 2A community talks a big game, and for the cast majority, that's all it is. Talk.

For the most part I've simply given up on people and now "Everyone Sucks" until they prove different.
So many bad things can get worse by speaking to someone about something you enjoy or that is personal, why bother? Come here and vent a bit, ask some questions and weigh your results.
Other than that, until humans begin showing a bit of humanity, I aint got much faith in them.

I think most will just leave them under their beds and in their closets, assuming they're safe because they're not criminals and no one would want to burn them. The odds are in their favor in doing exactly that, but every cautionary tale will be one plucked from their ranks. There's really only one question to ask:

And then there are those that do not talk..........

Can someone difine what line in the sand means? And what happens if/when big gov crosses it. Is that when the shooting starts?

When the line in the sand is crossed then the balloon goes up.

This. There's no line in the sand.
