How soon you'd change your drum beat if your government rounded you up and lined you up to be exterminated. This has happened many times through out recorded history. I'm sure the victims or their families, survivors, or anyone that lived through a horrific event like that had escape, self preservation, or murder on their mind. Go through a life/death experience by the will of the same people you trust to protect you and your views on self perservation or the preparation for it will change. If you think your government or any government is free from many forms of corruption, genocide, or putting your life in danger one only needs to look at history. If we can go 1000 years without an event like this I'd might change my mind. But we can't even go one human life cycle with out this treatment found throughout the world. Laugh at those that know the real world or prepare for a possible day when theirs could be turned up side down, but I bet you wouldn't be laughing if you were dragged from your home by your own government and marched into a death camp with no means of doing anything about it. I'm glad everything is fine for you now, but if you think the world is on any sort of upworld spiral you're sadly mistaken.
I almost feel sorry for the amount of trust you put into people whos only true interest is money and power. That's exactly why big business and banks run the world. That's exactly why decisions in government are hardly ever based on their moral implications but instead on their financial ones. That's why 9 out of every 10 people in a power position got there because of their ties to big business, big oil, or family/political power ties. It has absolutely nothing to do with what you are hoping to achieve. And if you think those that have been bread to be a congressman from birth, grew up having the maid clean their room, paid other people to do their homework/studies while attending any ivy league school, etc., know anything about the common man, you have really got to be kidding yourself. There is no such thing as democracy anywhere in the world. You can vote all you want, but you're voting for the person or people that were put in that position to be voted for in the 1st place. I think a typical presidential campaign is on the verge of 200 million dollars now. In other words, it's big brother and the boys club running the show. It's always been this way and continues to get worse.
I'm not saying that people need to round up an arsenal or any of that jazz, but if your government won't let you own a gun there's a very big problem. The other thing is the US was founded upon that principle. When the colonists sent the brits packing, much of the fighting was done by the average man and his own weapons. That has been pounded into our heads since we could walk. That's kinda what America is all about, the roots of it if you will. We fled to get out of the that in Europe. We will not be oppressed by any form of government especially our own without being able to have the right to own weapons that your government has.
