actually we are already forced to purchase guns-
a portion of every penny we spend goes to our defense budget. And a portion goes to a police dept.
We have universal military protection, we have universal police protection.
Just because you aren't holding the weapon, doesn't mean you aren't purchasing it.
Any more than purchasing health care would require that you avail yourself of it.
