PC Plod & Firearms confiscation
Does anybody know if there are any emergency government / C.O.B.R.A plans to confiscate firearms, maybe as part of a martial law attempt?
The reason I ask is that TEOTWAWKI may not happen over night. It's arguable that we have been experiencing a slow grind towards the abyss, what with the recession, possible collapse of the euro, and the fact our whole way of life relies on a finite resource.
So lets say that Britain has been circling the drain for a few months. Things are looking pretty shitty, but there is still a certain amount of normality, with power and water still running most of the time.
Imagine, having police, possibly armed, with a stretched out government official wielding emergency powers attempting to requisition food from "hoarders" and to confiscate weapons for the safety of the public. OPSEC is a crucial part of preparedness, but anyone with a registered firearm will be on the register. What would you do? Negotiate? Allow them to bully you and leave you defenseless? Fight back and hope that backup is stretched too thin, or that the legal ramifications will be lost in the coming chaos of WROL?
Woe to those who add house to house and join field to field, Until there is no more room, So that you have to live alone in the midst of the land!
