It has been said that there are no dangerous weapons, only dangerous minds.
Several years ago on I believe PBS there was a news program call "Asia Weekly". I am probably wrong on the names but the program was produced out of Hong Kong and showed various stories about Asia.
They ran a story about a village in India which had established a firing range in the village, smallarm or air I don't remember, and made it so everyone in the village could use said range. By everyone I mean Male, Female, Young, and Old.
The end result, as reported, was a strong sense of independence is the village combined with noticable decline in local criminal activity. Also said village was producing marksmanship champions for India.
The resulting ability in firearms seemed to produce the mental willingness for the inhabitants to help themselves rather than looking for some faraway Guru to bring them answers.
With so much in regards to firearms and freedom it is the mental which predominates for successful endings.
