The right to defend one’s property, one’s liberty, and one’s life is a right that pre-exists any government. It is a natural right of all human beings, something that is recognized by the Bill of Rights, rather than granted. Thus I’m not surprised to this survey show that a majority of Americans would engage in civil disobedience, should the government act against the Second Amendment.
In fact, it’s already happening in New York.
I periodically share public opinion data, either because I’m encouraged by the results or because I think that the research helps show how to frame issues.

@ L.A. You equate YOUR right 2 life. What abt the “chilodren’s right to escape abortion??
We weren’t talking about abortion but if you want to throw in a red herring in this argument, so be it. So you are arguing that a collection of cells has the right to life, but school children aren’t worth protection? Sounds reasonable..
One could hardly call a fetus in the third trimester a collection of cells.
