Riiight. I think the nation might be a little more diverse than your self-serving generalizations would lead you to believe.
Why shouldn't taking precautions to preserve you, your kin, and property be empowering? Would you rather the government keep you safe (from itself)?
Just because the 2nd amendment may stand outside your personal prejudices about society, government, and violence... limited foresight does not render any part of the constitution inappropriate or those who exercise their rights "chickenshits".
