To arm or not to arm?

With the coming of the new social order - CHANGE, there will be resistance and chaos. There will be a breakdown of transportation and food supplies. People will be hungry and without fuel to go to work or to shop. Which will spiral into the breakdown of society with gangs controlling territory but under a martial law. How to protect ourselves? Buy weapons and learn how to use them. The problem is that we will be shooting our neighbors who will be looking to shoot us for what we have and they don't. Welcome to CHANGE.
