The federal authority is still supreme.

The federal government CAN and HAS forced states to call out their

The point being every able bodied adult male doesn't have to go through
training

Exactly----because the federal and state authorities do that for them

Making it hard to claim a citizen has to have a weapon to protect the
frontier from hostiles.

"Self defense" results in more dead family and neighbors than it does in

In my personal case, they will trigger alarms long before the door and
yes, I will have the gun in my hand when they come through the door.


Do you couch surf with your 9mm under the pillow?

Frankly, I have gotten so used to the gun, the smallest 9mm made,
http://www.rohrbaughfirearms.com/ , that yes, it is always in a shoulder
holster, or in my pocket.

When I sleep, there is a larger one, .45 cal., under my pillow ...

When I was in the service, I slept with my rifle, in the field and on
maneuvers, and it remained my constant companion during the day ... the
wife doesn't like rifles in bed! ROFLOL

But, you are correct, only in a few home invasions have I heard of the,
would be, victim so alert and responsible ... I will admit, during the
day, at home, I am a bit more relaxed ... hey, life is a gamble, I am
just here to make sure the criminal takes the largest gamble.
