if you answered YES to at least one of the questions (there are many similar questions that can be asked), YOU are submitting to "their" every demand... and since you are probably a gun owner, you are also ready to take on the tyrannical government that we have - as the 2nd amendment says NOTHING about protecting your home from a criminal, it only talks about bearing arms in the state regulated militia...

I do pay taxes, I do have a drivers license, and I do follow the US Laws because I believe and support this country. However when this country decides to push me over the line that will all change. There are plenty of things that I don't do/support because I do not submit to their every demand. I vote, and write my elected officials.
"District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), the Court ruled that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to possess a firearm, unconnected to service in a militia[1][2] and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home within many longstanding prohibitions and restrictions on firearms possession listed by the Court as being consistent with the Second Amendment.[3] In McDonald v. Chicago, 561 U.S. 3025 (2010), the Court ruled that the Second Amendment limits state and local governments to the same extent that it limits the federal government"

what you are proposing, is ANARCHY, when the stores are out of supplies, you are suggesting people with arms taking care for themselves, effectively leaving out the weak and disabled, like little kids, elderly... I want to eat, just like anyone else, but i will not take last piece of meal from the mouth of pregnant woman, just because i have a gun... i have dignity... i am a human being... i am a civilized person, i did not just step out the woods... i'd rather die as a lion, from hunger, than live as a jackal...

When that pregnant women is your wife and that jackal is armed what do you plan to do? defend against him with pride?

I welcome you to our country as it is what this country is built on. I welcome you with open arms. But do not mistake my strong opinion for this issue as an attack on yours. Do not mistake my understanding for the need to protect one self as a means to do harm, or steal from a pregnant lady's mouth. Come on.
