Nonetheless, having a gun in your house makes it far more likely that it will be used to kill a) yourself, b) a friend, family member, or other relative, c) an innocent bystander, rather than some "criminal" which is the big boogeyman that the gun nuts hold out there.
As far as standing up to the "government" goes....if they are going to arrest you do you think they will send one cop with a revolver to your house? The SWAT team will be all over you like stink on shit and picking up a gun in that situation is probably about the single least safe thing you could do.
