I understand that. I was just speaking for myself. Maybe if the police get defunded it will force folks to start buying and using guns. It may be a blessing. After all, our founders warned us about having police be a standing army. That’s exactly what it has become.But you are in the minority and the majority of the citizens don't have that option or are not willing to use it. So, that's not really a viable alternative for the nation to rely on.
