How do you mean?

That's what.

Efectiveness aside, your plan is waaaay more badass. Are you sure you're french? Even for a Norman, you've just broke the awesomeness meter.

Personally, I would've wanted to have much more than a handgun if I found myself in the L.A. riots, the Katrina aftermath, the recent hurricane in the northeast......

But that's only the tip of the iceberg. You're too limited in your thinking. Step out of your bubble. Civil unrest happens every day in this world. Only an idiot would assume it can't happen here. And if that were ever to happen, you could be up **** creek without some real fighting capabilities.

I like your plan.

Come on Pat, you really can't imagine a good sized group of people getting pissed off and trying to take on Devil? Hell, I think I've seen that unfold on Bullshido before.
