Some people believe that the only way to prepare for a "crisis" is to "go to the range" and practice shooting. Look, Americans are the most well-armed populace in the world, and the government is still going nuts. People are being taxed to death, the government is intruding on everybody's rights. What I'm saying is that simply having a gun and knowing how to shoot is not going to stop the government from, for instance, tricking your child into going into debt for a piece of paper and then garnishing that child's (or your) wages for fifty years to pay back what you "owe".
As bold and courageous as conservatives think they are, the government is just that more cunning. They've even got us using their words, as if we actually believe in all of these witch hunts. That's why I firmly believe that Trump, while not being the perfect choice, is a step in the right direction. Reagan was a Hollywood actor, a leading man in Hollywood no less. He never should've been the great boon to success and personal responsibility that he was. Judging by Hollywood's standards, he should've been another Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby. Trump, in fact, has already surpassed Reagan's accomplishments.
My idea of preparing for the inevitable is by reading books. Opening your mind up to knowledge, not just flimsy magazine articles or political "journalism," is what is going to move the needle. Know yourself. Know your mind. If you had a gun, you might be more likely to kill yourself with it than an "intruder."
