I completely understand what you are saying and luckily I live in a nice area. I recall homeowners having to defend there properties for days after extreme weather events ! ! ! And; yes people must be prepared and able to defend themselves , I like people ...
I truly do like people but I am also a realist , this planet can only sustain 5 billion people long term ; so if things really start to go wrong in society. I am perfectly prepared to give the planet an hand and to permanently remove lots and lots of people if necessary ; even if it means TWO BILLION ; )
Maybe you can understand that thought process : )
