"I do n't mean to get off on a tangent here , but it 's our duty to protect ourselves ? Right is one thing , but duty ?"
"Well let me put it like this , I consider it your duty because if you do n't protect yourself then you basically shift that responsibility to someone else . Not only is this incredibly selfish , but 9 out of 10 times the 'protection business ' gets outsourced to the State . This in itself it dangerous because when people decide that a third party like the State ( which has no real accountability ) has control over their lives it can all to easily lead to a situation where the State becomes tyrannical . More people have been killed by their own government than by any foreign government ."
