Open carry really isn’t the issue; that was just an example. Regardless of State statute, the right to bear arms, in one’s home is unquestioned, nationwide! Are the draft-enforcers really going to go to peoples’ homes to “press” them? No! The enforcement of an unequally applied statute - which the draft had become, and which is why it was defeated- is the issue in question. As I stated, the draft has been defeated; it has no longer has any enforceable authority, regardless of the coercive Selective-Service registration statute (which, by the way, is also applied discriminatorily, by sex, and, therefore, ripe for challenge of constitutionality).Open carry depends on what State you live in. Surprisingly Florida prohibits it (mostly). It's irrelevant on what you think of LEOs. If they want you to pull over, you'd do it. I highly doubt you can just ignore them. Once they get their orders, some will carry it out while others will ignore or walk away. We won't know until that reality arrives. Would there be a division among government enforcers / general population? Absolutely yes. Regardless, it'll turn into a sh1tshow right quick.
As for "press gangs", that's what Selective Service is for. It's still unlawful to not register. Punishment for non-compliance will likely arrive when that time comes.
Some (like yourself, it seems), fear the gov’t, and have accepted the role of a subject vs that of a citizen. Most likely, it’s these folks that’ll be drafted (like sheep), while folks like me won’t, as I reject unequal protection! My peoples’ history offers me no choice in this matter.
Nonetheless, the contemporary U. S. government, unlike the Communist Party
Of China, has learned the art of “not revealing the fishes” (Lao Tzu, Dao De Ching), and now, wisely (and cynically), uses persuasive vs coercive measures to achieve it’s domestic objectives (a reading of Benedict Anderson’s, “Imagined Communities” would be illustrative, here). They’ve learned that it’s much easier to control a population that believes that its enslavement is by FREE and voluntary choice! As such, I reiterate, a persuasive, racist (ethno-nationalist), campaign of voluntary enlistment is the more likely eventuality.
