If this election turns out to have the result so many see comming, those that have come here to tell us how barbaric we are for wanting to protect ourselves will see exactly how many Americans are not willing to knuckle under. Luckily, our politicians still fear the US citizen and should always remain so.

That may well be true, but, if your facing some crazy that could not care one wit how much powerful information you have and he's shooting at you, all the words and powerful knowledge in the world ain't gonna help you much! Like I've said before, I chose to own and use firearms because I have the right to choose and nothing anyone says will change that!

I dont think it equates to civility on your part, I think it stems from living in a bubble and being hidden away from the realities of the world.
Life in Uganda is dangerous,
life in El Salvador is dangerous,
Violence and danger are a reality for a great portion of the world, hence they prepare for it, they speak of it, they do not fear it.
People who live in peaceful and passive countries do not get exposed to this sort of thing, therefore it is shocking and primitive to them. It offends their prim and proper sensibilities. A hard life hardens the soul and spirit, it takes extreme pressure to make a diamond.
But I ask you, which group is more likely to survive in the event of extreme violence breaking out...those who know it and are used to it or those who whimper at the thought of defending themselves or harming another?

FACT The states with the strictest gun laws have the highest crime rates, such as New York, LA, and Washington. Therefore I don't believe laws are the solution.

I'll try to clear the record for those of you that don't know or understand the laws in the US.
1) In order to purchaes a firearm you must pass a back ground check by the FBI.
Do you regret giving up your right to own firearms?
