Our governments have the monopoly on violence, hence why they can get away with doing this to us and our people. The elite with their bodyguards and gated communities don't have to worry so much about this. But the average man is left defenceless and scared while bombarded with propaganda, so where does he or she go when under threat? To the very government that introduced the threat to begin with.

This is the prime reason why firearm rights are so important to keep a country sovereign, governments are the most dangerous entity to man. Concentrations of power are the seed of corruption and by allowing every man and woman to bear arms you spread physical prowess over the entire country, it keeps governments in line and gives the people's voice prominence. Coincidentally most of the European countries where bearing arms is a right are the countries where the least corruption takes place and where most politicians are taking an active stance against this broad scale invasion.
