"There will come a time when the gun owners of America, the law-abiding gun owners of America, will be the Rosa Parks and we will sit down on the front seat of the bus, case closed."

That was the response of Ted Nugent, rock legend and long-time defender of the Second Amendment, when asked what he would do should the government decide to go forward with any of the many firearms-confiscation plans now being developed.

In an exclusive interview with WND, Nugent, who said last year that if Barack Obama is re-elected he would "either be dead or in jail by this time next year," unloaded on the recent news that Obama is considering an executive order to deal with guns.

The Weekly Standard reported Vice President Joe Biden revealed that President Obama might use an executive order to deal with guns.

"The president is going to act," Biden told reporters before a meeting with victims of gun violence. "There are executive orders, there's executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet. But we're compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the cabinet members as well as legislative action that we believe is required."

Biden called it a moral issue and said "it's critically important that we act."

But Nugent believes the administration would have difficulty carrying out a plan to confiscate weapons.

"If it comes to the actual implementation of an actual confiscatory directive from our president, then I do believe that the heroes of the law enforcement will defy this order," he said. "I do believe that there are enough soulless sheep within our government who would act on such an illegal order, but I believe the powers that be at the local, state and regional law enforcement would halt such an illegal, anti-American order.'

Nugent continued: "You are talking to a guy who talks to more gun owners in more heated and concerned conversations than anyone who lives. These are top notch heroes of law enforcement and military who understand this experiment in self-government and we will not let [gun confiscation] happen; we will do it peaceful.

"But there will come a time when the gun owners of America, the law-abiding gun owners of America, will be the Rosa Parks and we will sit down on the front seat of the bus, case closed."

Nugent is a long-time champion and outspoken defender of the Constitution and Second Amendment. He told WND the media narrative since the Sandy Hook massacre in Newtown, Conn., has been shameful.

"The shock and dismay and heartbreak, then just the specific gun issue, but there is a subculture, dare I say subhuman culture, infesting our government and society that would zone in on hardware and inanimate objects instead of people's conduct and the justice systems failure," he said.

He hammered the Obama administration for going after the constitutional right to bear arms.

"The media and the government is hell-bent on convincing that water is dry and we should all reconsider our conclusions about the dampness of H20," he said. "These people are out of their cotton-picking minds, and they scare Americans who are committed to logic, truth and common-sense, and real solutions instead of the insanity that I witness from our government and media.

"If you were attempting to write an offensive script to a new 'Planet of the Apes' movie, I couldn't come up with a dumber and [more] unbelievable insanity than our government and our media is perpetrating on the American public," Nugent said.
