Great reply; thanks.

I think a lot of folks have become overly demoralized by the constant threat of some kind of tyrannical crack down, not realizing that, despite all the meaningless bullshit laws on paper, and communist clowns masquerading on TV, the only successful grabs at our freedom were the income tax and the NFA, both at a time when our guard was down. The remaining freedoms our founders fought for will not be so easily given up when they come to actually take them, not by a generation of men who have seen the kind of bullshit scams we've all seen from the government. They couldn't even get people to turn in high capacity magazines in New Jersey… New Jersey… Miami did a buyback and one guy, if I recall correctly, got paid for something like 50 homemade guns that cost him dollars each to make during that week. He then used the money they paid him to go buy real guns. Socialism only works by force, and that's not something they have on their side, not here.

I also agree with you that there are places that will be left unscathed, but my biggest concern is that trying to figure out which places is a bit of a gamble. For example, Argentina looked kind of attractive, having already come out of the other side of its major Socialism downfalls, because it's pretty low population/cheap land/a lot of countryside, but now, over the past decade, China has been buying up all the land there, which makes me think that during the next war all of South America is going to be under heavy occupation.
