All of the crises, whether they be terrorism, crime, pandemic, economic recession, or just the election of Democrats, remind people that they are vulnerable. It's easy to be completely oblivious and to think it can't happen to you, and a lot of people trudge through life in that state. Events that prove otherwise make people realize how exposed they are, so they do what they can to mitigate it. It's not irrational like buying up massive amounts of toilet paper... the truth is that life is not safe, and a gun is a tool for coping with living in an unsafe world.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible. Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince." |
