The thought has crossed my mind, but the hard truth is that the majority of my neighbors on this quiet wooded dead end street I call home, are the embodiment of everything I despise. My next door neighbors own a successful used car dealership with a reputation for shady business practices. They take issue with anything and everything my family does, and are impossible to deal with civilly.
For example, I was vacuuming my car one friday night last summer at about 8 pm. Rather than asking if I could keep the noise down, the woman storms over with cell phone in hand, yelling and threatening to call the cops on me if I didn't "shut that damn thing off" right then and there.
A few houses down, there is another well-to-do sue-happy family that views mine as inferior, the lady of the house being an IRS auditor who bears a striking resemblance to Hillary Clinton. There are more, and I could go on and on and on, but that wouldn't be very high road of me. All the good people that once surrounded me have either died or moved elsewhere, and they have been replaced with people like this without a single exception. These people have treated myself, my family, and my other neighbors with so much disrespect and unprovoked hostility, that I would not under any circumstances loan them anything, let alone a firearm, at a time like that.
Unsurprisingly, these elitist neighbors are hardcore leftists who have all, at some point, showed that they oppose gun ownership, nonconformity, property rights, and that they view those who are not as wealthy as them as inferior human beings. When something bad happens in the neighborhood, the finger is immediately pointed at my family, even though we've never at any point given anyone a reason to do so.
Needless to say, if/when it all comes crashing down around us, my plan for long term survival involves relocating. I have a group of friends and family who I've sat down with and discussed this scenereo with, and each one of us has at least 3 guns that can and will be loaned to unexpected members of our "community".
