Yep, my best advise to family and friends is be prepared. Yea, there's a lengthy precedent of: this will never happen:
1. There will never be unrestricted abortion.
2. We will never have gay marriage as the law of the land.
3. There will never be unrestricted rights of transsexuals to use the restroom of their choice.
4. We would never disregard existing immigration law.
5. Sanctuary cities for illegal immigrants is just a conservative fantasy.
6. You idiot. We will never have women serving along side men in the military.
7. Freedom of religion will never be compromised. But you best bake that cake for that gay couple regardless of your faith. Right wing religious nuts are just paranoid.
8. Islam is a religion of peace. You conservatives are just racist hate mongers.
9. They will never take away your guns in the UK.
10. And yea, they will never take away your guns in the U.S.........

Don't know the purpose of this list. Several of the items are right-wing nut rhetoric that I hear all of the time from zealots (I'm a registered Republican). Several of the items are not things that were/should have been warned against. Several are God-given rights. #7 made me laugh. #9 is not a U.S. Law, and UK residents never had guns in the first place.

It would be logistically impossible for the U.S. Government to take guns away from law-abiding citizens. And no national politician has ever run successfully on that platform. The NRA has you suckered into supporting them. And they'll keep it up as it's worked so well for them in the past.
