Just an aside, along with the seizure of all private weapons the control of all major media outlets are important first steps in creating a totalitarian state. Despite the liberal mainstream media, we have a ways to go before we see totalitarianism in this country. Not that it couldn't happen...

Just my opinion,

By now, we've seen many examples where LITIGATION destroyed people, industries, and even political movements just as effectively as legislation, and with an activist anti-2nd amendment Supreme Court, combined with an anti-2nd amendment president, I think it could be effectively accomplished without Congress' say and without suspending the "constitutional government." They might have to pay a small pittance to gun owners to ostensibly satisfy the just compensation requirement, but it's not a roadblock.

The litigation part of their plan is already underway.
