Life is never dull for lovers of irony, is it?
The attribution of paranoia to those who would act like normal life-forms and provide for their own personal safety is almost Pavlovian for the statists. (Clearly, Master has trained them well.)
Yet the first response of these same is to call upon a gang of armed goons to quash any semblance of defensive capacity in others. "Who is that guy? He obviously can't be trusted. Take him down!"
"Methinks thou doth protest too much", indeed. Whether it is technically projection or not is a matter for the psychologists, but it is certainly revealing. The specifics of the man's tactics aside, we certainly learned precisely how much a peaceable armed citizen is trusted by his "betters", and that seems to have been his point.
The message here is clear: if someone else controls your ability to defend your life, your life does not belong to you.
I put my 3-cents worth out there. :-)

Apparently, that is not a problem to some people.
I left two. Specifically addressing the posters.
