Taking away half the cars in this country, given that something like 10% of the infrastructure is involved with them is certainly a big deal.
Infrastructure: Gas stations, refineries, mechanics, tire stores, car dealers who won't be selling cars, restaurants who feed these people, etc. Taking away half the cars in this country is one of the stupider ideas I've seen presented.
I understand the gun deal, though. It became next to impossible to buy .22 LR ammo after Obama was elected, as part of his rhetoric was about "getting rid of guns". As he found out, that's never going to happen, no matter how much he wanted it. People panicked and bought all they could get. As a weekend sport shooter, it was pretty annoying to me to have to show up at a store the day ammo was delivered so I could get some. I didn't shoot my .22 rifle for years, because I wasn't going to stand in line for ammo.
As far as an "insurrection" is concerned, any imagined confiscation of firearms not used in a crime would boil down to the local police picking them up...and the police aren't going to do that! They have to look at how the civilians are looking at them, and would opt out of that sort of stupidity. Wild-ass expectations of the military knocking on people's doors is some sort of hype by the gun lobbies.

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
