We, American citizens, are innocent until proven guilty of a crime - beyond a reasonable doubt - by due process of law. Preventive prosecution and confiscation of property are not American principles.
Every man must decide for himself what cost he is willing to pay, but violation of our inalienable rights must be resisted, if our Foundational principles are to be preserved. History proves that those peoples who didn't, became slaves to their oppressive governments.
The 2A is the first, essential freedom. Without it, the rest of the Bill of Rights exists at the discretion of despotic bureaucrats and power hungry politicians. I believe Heston had it right, "From my cold, dead hand."
Damn STRAIGHT!!!
