If you turn on the television right now, I hope you recognize that this is exactly why the following exists:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Yesterday, people in Ukraine, civilians, were told they could come pick up guns from a location to fight Russian troops. People who have never carried a weapon, learned how to use a weapon, etc.
It's your right and responsibility to learn how to defend yourself (and those who cannot defend themselves) against enemies, foreign and domestic.
We are so fortunate to have the military strength we do. But our military representation isn't 1:1 civilian to military, so it's up to you to decide what it looks like if the "impossible" arrives on your doorstep.
So the Ukrainian *Government* took guns that were controlled by the *Government*, and gave those guns to their citizens, and now those citizens, despite not having a large personal cache of guns that they have already been trained to use, are out their doing a pretty fine job against the Russians.
Remind me again why the citizens need to have a bunch of guns?
