So Just for kicks and Giggles imagine I'm a dictator who wants to disarm America.
Going to every home in America to confiscate Firearms would be astronomically impractical.
It was saying the more expedient approach would be to just cease any and all ammunition production
After all the 2nd Amendment failed to mention ammunition.
You'll run out eventually
Some argue that they can just make their own ammunition at home but you'll never be able to make enough to keep up when the government controls all the ammo factories

I'm pretty sure such an effort would be struck down. The production and sale of ammunition is so material to the use of firearms that it would be interpreted to be an infringement upon the second amendment.

To some extent I agree with you. But that can't stop the resistance. As long as there are highway flares, potassium chlorate, TSP, gasoline, Draino and manure. We can blow their :poop: away!

Fireworks were illegal where I lived as a teen... So we made our own. The DOD has known since '69. We had an accident. ;) Oops, Boom!
