The history of socialists, communists, & despots quickly/stealthily/tyrannically confiscating civilian firearms is a long read.
But in this day and age, in this freedom loving country whose forefathers saw the need to enumerate a basic civil right, that game will not work. Horses are outa the barn… way too many American civilians own firearms and would be unwilling to participate in voluntarily surrender of them. Thus the long game played by the nefarious. Take over the State and turn it into The Great Provider. for all sheeple to be cared for by a just & loving nanny. Start with free $$, Medicaid, corrupt the education system and a few generations later all the ‘lil sheeples will willingly line up to get into the boxcars.

Man… I think I need a Snickers…

“… Fudds are liars, elitists and tyrants. Loyalists to the crown. “

Perfectly framed !

Simplified anyone who says “I support the second amendment but”. There is endless nuance that can be explored but disingenuous lip service to civil liberties is key.

The term “Fudd” does NOT, I repeat, does NOT refer to someone who fails to own 57 firearms and AR-15 platform rifles.

The term “Fudd” refers to firearm owners who only own rifles and/or shotguns (optimized solely for hunting at that) AND, I repeat, AND who support many, most, or all restrictions on our right to keep and bear ALL firearms. Thus people in the firearms community refer to such people as Fudds because they only support firearms for hunting purposes and their active support of many/most/all firearms restrictions ultimately works against their own interest in owning firearms. (The reasoning for that last bit: the forces of civilian disarmament have the end goal of total civilian disarmament. Civilian disarmament activists only allow Fudds to keep their Fudd guns initially to garner their support and momentum for banning an ever increasing list of firearms.)

In other words Fudds are the equivalent of women’s rights in women-only sports activists who support many, most, or all men participating in women’s sports.

It self-identifies as useless when the media fauns all over one persons opinion for doing X while Y but ignores another’s for doing the same X while Y. Either it’s valuable or it’s not and the media itself has decided it’s not valuable.

Fudds are liars, elitists and tyrants. Loyalists to the crown.
