I dunno we saw several countries in the middle east stand up to their tyrannical govt's with just numbers in the streets & protesting. What are the odds that a single gun nut will leave his house and actually protest anything out side of being a forum warrior.



Occupy Wall Street was the first real movement of that type in the US since the 60's. Americans by far are very out spoken about our rights but very few actually do anything to protect them. The govt could ban guns and 99% of the pro gun people would likely just try to hide what they could and do nothing but talk about it on the internet.
