It sure does cut it. Look at the gun and ammo sales, up the roof and beyond as proof.

Ok, only one last post on this subject, and please don’t take it personal, for it isn’t meant that way.
You can “lock and load” in your living room or basement ‘til the cows come home, but what will it avail one individual or family when confronted by an organized group, particularly a government military group, for that’s who you will be fighting. Without nationwide organization these individual “lock and loaders” will either surrender or quickly die. You can’t do it alone, nor can you do it with a dozen para-military “militia” wannabe bad-asses.
Nationwide organization is nearly impossible, so I don’t see that happening. The only other viable alternative, and I’ve personally seen this work remarkably well in Southeast Asia and Central America, is small bands of partisans who can blend into the population and go unnoticed in their daily routine, but who are willing to make smoking holes of certain targets. And the smoking holes have to be often enough and plentiful enough to make nationwide news and capture the attention of the populace.
I don’t see this happening, either.
