not really. i'm not asking anybody to protect me. i'll live with - and accept responsibility for - the choice i've made to not own a gun.
i've been told, by multiple gun owners, that the primary, even sole, reason for owning a weapon is to fight government tyranny. gwb's torching of the 4th amendment wasn't enough so maybe the president's threat to deploy u.s. troops to the streets of america is enough? i'm trying to understand what level of tyranny is required before those people put their money where their mouth is.
or maybe, you know, there's another explanation and maybe that's the point...
