Same here (across the small pond on your right). I understand it was for self defense mainly I'm not planning to get a gun for a hypothetical collapse myself though.
I don't have any plans to get one either. Probably I'm just a bit paranoid Just advancing an argument as to why you might want one.
How come Power relates with Gun, if there is real power within us, we don't need guns obviously. however I understood what you are saying about.
Economic power is more significant, and everyone has that. If you stopped giving money to the people in power, they wouldn't have any power. It's a better protest to band together and form an independent community where people help each other than to buy guns, drugs or household products from the same people who drive the war machines.
Until they come and take it from you at gunpoint. Or drag you off to court and thence jail. And now with QE they can just print themselves off a few billion to pay for the guns to do it.
yes those who don't have guns have power with a sword no sword knife no knife a stick no stick a rock no rock ... love no love ??????????????????????? ?????????????????? ?????? ? better get a gun !
There is power in the sociopolitical arena. There is power over yourself--your emotions, words, actions. There is power that you have in your social circles and your family. I'm using power here with a neutral connotation. So, my answer is yes people have power without guns. However, I am not opposed to law abiding people owning guns.
Guns have anything to do with power? Power - the ability to do something or act in a particular way, esp. as a faculty or quality. Almost everything you can do with a gun can be just as easily done without.
