1. Individual Americans have the right to bear arms. This is the clear intent of the Founding Fathers in many of the papers and articles they wrote outside of the Bill of Rights, and for excellent reasons.

2. Yes, a populace well-armed can stand off an army: look at Pakistani guerillas holding back the Russians, or the Viet Cong holding off the Americans, or other examples throughout history.

3. Pacifists rely on the goodwill of others to protect them.

4. It is every individual's duty, ultimately, to be responsible for (and defend) their own property, including their life. Urban lifestyle is an illusion in the pocket of a greater illusion surrounded by reality.
