Hence why I said "hypothetical and implausible." I don't exactly walk around in my everyday life fearing the imminent takeover of America by some fantasy fascist militia.

Yet, for some reason, the "defense against the State" argument seems to be a prominent part of the reasoning of those who oppose gun control measures, and the 2008 election was accompanied by a massive boost in gun sales.

Why so afraid?
