Ask the idiots at Waco and Ruby Ridge. Their arsenal didn't protect them at all and the whole "you can pry my gun from my cold, dead fingers" nonsense is childish.
These "idiots" were attacked by the government hell bent upon using force to kill their "suspects" on the pretense they were armed. I don't see how a woman with a baby in her arms was threatening any FBI agent. The people at Ruby Ridge could have been waited out until they ran out of food or needed medical attention. When the FBI was fired upon, they could have pulled back and waited them out. And David Koresh could have been arrested peacefully any number of times on his trips into Waco. In each instance cited, the "suspects" did NOT have to be attacked by the government because they may have been armed.

I find it very strange that some of the same people who advocate talking to "terrorists" abroad often advocate the opposite here in the US. My my, how ironic and hypocritical.

Maybe if more people actually tried to CHANGE the government instead of hunkering down in foxholes pretending they can fight the government, we wouldn't be in the situation we're in.
What situation, pray tell, might this be?
