Can't own the first type if you don't own the second type to protect your right to own the first type. I have no less a right to own a firearm to defend myself and my family than I do to breathe air. A good govt is one that fears it's constituents.
Not saying you can't. Just saying that you can defend yourself as well with one AR as you can 10.
But a guy with 10 can make 9 friends....
My take on this is that if those 9 "friends" didn't think beforehand what could happen, they'd be pretty useless when the time comes. I don't think that you could count on them in a crunch.
I disagree. Out here in the country there are lots of folks who hunt, fish, shoot, and spend a lot of time outdoors. They may not keep up on the latest and greatest guns and gear, and may not have any real interest in semi-auto rifles. Their money may be spent on a million other things, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't know what to do and how to do it when the time comes.
