“Complacent” isn’t really the right word, and I wonder if this is more Operation MOCKINGBIRD (look it up – it’ll do you good) deception. The fact is that the corporately owned government of the U.S. ignores the law whenever it feels like it, continuing until it is somehow stopped – which often isn’t. When a cop takes your gun, you can get it back only by hiring a lawyer who charges per hour what you make in a week. The lawyer, who is licensed to practice by the state that took your property, will argue before a judge purchased and paid for by the same corporations who own the government. Like all civil rights, ownership and carrying a weapon cannot be protected by means of the corruption-dominated legal and governmental system extant today. Anyone who believes he will win in court or legislature just because he is right, or because his rights are guaranteed by the law, is a fool not paying attention. Only one thing works – the ability to politically or economically destroy those who violate or plot against the law. If the NRA forgets this, as the general public obviously has, we will have to fight on our doorsteps to defend our rights (anyone paying attention to the situation with the Mormans in San Angelo, Texas?). Anyone who doesn’t recognize that is another oblivious fool.
