Also, if these "law-abiding gun owners" are violent enough to shoot cops because they disagree with a law that does not trump anyone's basic human rights (no, guns aren't basic human rights just like marijuana isn't), they aren't law-abiding.

If the federal government actually tries to confiscate every single gun in America, then it would be time to destroy the federal government.

But, for the purposes of a mass gun confiscation being undertaken due to a 2nd Amendment repeal, let's assume the said events are taking place: there'd likely be discontent. I'd hope that this would be expressed at the ballot box, not w/ arms, but many gun owners will likely not be happy w/ this change. Therefore, given the fact that gun owners' political demographics lean slightly more to the right than the rest of the country, I find it possible that there could potentially be a significant uprising under the right circumstances.

That would never happen. The closest I could imagine is a national gun buyback program with the government giving substantial amounts of cash for each gun handed in. I think people would be surprised at just how many guns would be turned in for such a program.

Gun owners do not deserve handouts like this.

Tax payers should not be forced to pay off costs like this.

Take their guns away without payment. It is the only sensible way to do it.

Just compensation is a constitutional requirement.

Gun confiscation is morally reprehensible.
