Very true words from our friend Viktor Abel regarding the gun legislation in Russia.
And the fact that there is no need to go too far, since an armed citizen is not a potential criminal (after all, the army does not receive such treatment for having weapons), but on the contrary, a potential defender of the family, the people and the homeland.
Moreover, people trying to ban or restrict gun legislation often have armed bodyguards (including FSO employees, who receive salaries from our taxes). At the same time, the authorities will intervene for an ordinary person in the general queue ("When they kill you, then come").
And of course, these people don't enjoy armed citizens. And even more than those who have their own opinion and position in life.
In particular, those engaged in military training not at the expense of the state, but at personal expense, which allows him, if necessary, to be a more effective resource for the protection of national interests. Unlike a citizen, who will have to undergo rapid training (most importantly, often without his interest).
And remember, the main rule when communicating with people is always:
If a person claims to be Russian, but has no weapons, don't believe him, he is lying, he is not Russian.
