In some societies, it's the crazy young men -- the ones with flooding hormones who think they are immortal -- who will pick up the gun and fight the enemy. I don't see that happening so much here in the USA, at least in the scenario we are thinking of.

But I can see a different kind of society, a society with a big population bulge of older gentlemen, men who remember what this country used to be like, men who have spent a lifetime honing their skill with firearms. Once the kids leave home, and life starts to wind down ... well, perhaps having a last adventure wouldn't be so bad, eh? Fight the Power. Power to the People. Make the old slogans come alive again.
