Sorry but I'll trust myself with a gun to protect my family before I trust another person in government to do the same. Aside from the fact that my family doesn't matter to them as much as they do to me, the government enforcer also can't watch over my family at all times.

Giving up your guns and expecting to live in a safe society is a ridiculous idea, the police can't take care of you.

The Comanches thought the same. It wasn't until Colt's revolver got into the hands of Texas Rangers that they were brought to heel, and that was after 150 years of dominance over their land in the face of European settlers.
