Well said!! I couldn't have said it better myself. Not all of us depend or rely on our governments to provide our safety, and to provide our freedom. Some of us like to be self-sufficient, and there are just some situations that may arrise one day that one will need to provide for his own safety, and more importantly his own freedom. I like the example of civil unrest, as it's a fairly common thing in this world. When there are hordes of looting gangs running around in some sort of chaos, (think New Orleans during hurrican Katrina) then what better to use than an AR-15 to stand your ground as one man against 30?
