This is good for protecting against hateful randos, but won't do any good if the government comes for you. Unless the goal is just to take some of them down with you.

The most important thing is to keep your ratio above 1.0.

When the government came for him, having a gun sure didn't help.

Better to drag some of them into the grave along with you swiftly than waste away in a concentration camp. Maybe if enough of the fuckers get shot they'll stop volunteering for the job of going house to house and abducting Trump's undesirables.

Yeah, it's a valid goal.

The point of an armed populace isn't to take on the military. It's to make every citizen a potential threat to those in power. The more you piss off the population, the greater the danger of some rando slipping through the cracks.

We just saw how much one random dude with a gun can scare the shit out of corporate America by killing an insurance executive that nonlbody had even heard of. Imagine what a million Luigis could do.

Luigi was a different matter, as he was attacking, not defending. But I sure wouldn't mind if others decided that the ultra wealthy need to learn some more lessons in humility.
