73. And keeping your guns
as protection against cops and soldiers is asinine for three reasons:

1. Shooting back at a cop is one of the fastest ways to die that I'm aware of,
2. Soldiers are more likely to frag their superior officers than to attack their own country.
And 3. Even if 1 and 2 weren't true, they have guns you'll never be able to get. Big ones that you can mow forests and urban areas with equally well. If the time ever comes where the US Military faces off against an armed citizenry, my paycheck is on the soldiers, and the citizens who run like hell for the caves, as survivors.

So tell me another reason why keeping your guns is so damn important.
