"The main purpose of private weapons is to enable short-term survival of individuals while they try to win the culture war. For all the talk a civil war, we should hope it never starts. To win a civil war, we'd need a very broad coalition. If that coalition forms and holds, a miracle in itself considering the heterogeneous nature of the American gun owners, it would fall apart as soon as the original enemy falls. The faction would then fratricide as they have after every revolution in history, with the most ruthless group likely winning control. That group may or may not be us, but we wouldn't like our own image if we win, nor would we be alive to lament the loss if we do not.
We can (only) win this war by winning over our compatriots, one by one. That effort is less heroic but also less bloody and uncertain that taking up arms or growing old waiting for such a call. What have you done today...this week...this month to advance our cause? Look in the mirror and ask yourself that question in the privacy of your own mind."
