OK, I admit that one of my "trigger phrases" has been thrown out here. "Gun violence" is one of those made-up phrases used to evoke a visceral response and stymie debate and rational discourse. As such, a great many of the political class love it and can't hop on board fast enough when it is thrown out there. The effective use of this phrase and others to condition or program everyone to a certain way of "thinking", essentially pushing the adoption a belief system with no basis in facts or rational thought, is one of "the thousand cuts" destroying our country from within.

I'll step down from my soapbox now.

As to the questions posed, I think there will be some authorities who will attempt to round up folks who don't comply -- after all what is the purpose of this legislation beyond making criminals of a specific group of people where their activities were entirely legal before? The state has the same way out as they had to get IN to the mess. Lastly, I think there is a small percentage of gun owners who will refuse to comply regardless of the consequences and how active their refusal might become.
