    expect more of them to move to gated communities, entrenched beyond even higher walls, protected by people with even bigger guns.

    Protecting oneself from gunmen by surrounding oneself with gunmen with bigger guns sounds great until you think about it a bit more.

    Thats when paranoia hits.

      Let them feel uncomfortable for the rest of their existence.

        That cuts both ways. It’s only a matter of time until we see Ukrainian style flying drone bombs on the other side.

          Tiny drones with a small explosive charge, send a dozen to land on their head and shoulder area and explode. Good luck defending against that.

        Paranoia should hit even harder if you decide to surround yourself with smart killer robots.

      Doesnt sound too great if you’re dead. Guns make ridiculously terrible defensive weapons. Gun nuts dont seem to understand this. Whoever gets bullet into meat first wins, and surrounding yourself with guns just guarantees vengeance after you’re dead meat, not safety. The size of your clip doesnt matter either. Its argued over as a distraction-- and was chosen as a legal battleground because its a pointless concern.
