People I know are buying ammo; I'm personally committed to nonviolence, even if the consequence is my own painful violent death, but I'm not at all happy about this moment in history in this gun filled country.........

I bought a gun. Unfortunately nonviolence is only effective when the threat of violence is accompanying it. Nonviolence without that threat is just annoying. Gandhi had Hindu nationalists movements like Anushilan Samiti and others as his cudgel. King famously had Malcom X. Nonviolence works when it represents and alternative to the cost of violence.

I'm a Jesus freak, so I just don't do guns, and yes, I totally get the risks in that.
