okay the biggest problem with any kind of Total Gun Control is

Show of "hands" here how many of y'all have access to both a chem lab and a metal shop??

and how many of y'all have access to a "stash" of ammo and guns in an "undisclosed location"??

with a good chem lab making the primers/charges is dirt simple
with a good metal shop making a gun and ammo is not even dirt simple.

Yes My Friends if push came to shove we would have AKs for Days

1. Go to the Desktop
2. Right-click and select New Folder.

3. Right-click on the New Folder and select Rename.
4. Change the name of the folder [just copy & paste the following string]: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

5. Open the folder and you will find every utility Windows 8 has under the sun.

Note: With God Mode, you can easily access all the Administrative options and make any desired adjustments.

Enjoy!"

"Time for a 2 factor system where the hacker on the other end of the phone doesn't have easy access to one of the factors. "

this is where dial-backs come in handy .
the way it works is :

1 you get a call from "Joe Smith in the Texas Office"
2 you tell "Joe" im going to dial you back give me Line 3 when i call
3 you use your phone list to dial him back and
4 Joe gives you Line 3 (this is from a key string list) AND You as instructed give him line "5"
5 You then continue with business

Or Video Phones with the system doing Face Recog on both persons

1 have strict limits on the amount of funding that can be given to a given elected official (say X million per year TOTAL to include non cash gifts (use the tax value) and gifts to persons within 3 jumps of a give official) also ALL GIFTS ARE TO BE MADE PUBLIC AND POSTED TO A STANDARD LOCATION (official website??).

2 term limits lets say 3 terms and if you can be proven innocent of any crimes you can spend your third term in office and not jail.

3 Elected officials should be forbidden any after office jobs in industries that benefited from a given officials lawmaking (do 2 jumps on this part)
