I hardly see a problem with a holster and gun. I think that if an outlaw element exists in our neighborhood, and the local police are not up to the job, then just as people in the west had to do out of necessity, strap on your six-gun.
Just because we now exist in a world of ignorance does not mean we can't aspire to better. In my mind it will be the ignorant who will fall victim to the NWO agenda, and who will be first at risk. Like sheep. IMO survival of self is becoming paramount, especially if the current pattern of hysterical acquiessence of liberty to security continues. Even more importantly is the survival of common sense in the face of the present "putsch" for ignorance.
