	Note that I have not (far from it!) been arguing that tyranny
should not be fought or that it doesn't help to have weapons when one
fights it. My argument is that the threat of tyranny does not justify
a highly armed populace. Possibly not even a lightly armed one. Hunting
equipment is more than enough. (I'd consider hunting equipment to be
quite a bit more than "lightly armed" in fact)
