Self defense? BS. If you are on the street and somebody pulls a gun on you, what are you going to do? Pull out yours faster then Billy The Kid? Dart behind a car like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible and then kill the evil fucker? Nope, you are going to freeze and be nice and while you think of all your loved ones you will be hoping that the psycho with the gun is going to let you live.
Prepare yourself for culture shock but not everyone lives in the city. What are you going to do if you live in a rural area where it may take law enforcement 30 to 45 minutes to get to your house after the 911 call if some stranger(criminal, nutjob, methhead, who knows) is trying to break into your house or some creep pulls up in the driveway and starts eyeing your kids in the front yard? Chase them off with a pointed stick? Where I grew up my county's entire public safety division consisted of a sheriff, two deputies, two state troopers, and a handful of volunteer fire departments. All it would take to tie up all available law enforcement officers on a particular shift would be someone's cow getting out of a pasture and wondering onto a highway. Realistically self defense was the only sure defense you could have. My unscientific estimate is that at least 60% of the households where I lived had at least one gun in them and a significant portion had a shitload more than one. I am 40 years old despite all these guns that everyone had access too the last homicide in my county occured before i was born.

Do the names Timothy McVeigh and Jim Jones mean anything to you?
