I am so concerned about a thug or a government killing me, but the reality is I will die from disease. All my guns won't protect me from diabetes.

All the government has to do is take away your insulin and test strips, not your guns. Type 1 diabetics will start dropping like flies. Type 2s may following after a short time. But in a SHTF situation it is more likely starvation, lack of water, uncontrolled diabetes (due to lack of insulin and refrigeration), or all of these will lead to a slow painful death within a short period of time. There, does that make you feel any better?

Unless stockpile insulin from Wal-Mart and have a liquid gel cooler.
