That is true, but if you think about who generally uses violence more frequently, it is the governments (big mafias) “controlling” the market which is the only civilized and peaceful way humanity has to develop societies without the use of violence.
Governments depend on violence and coercion, against their own or other people to exist and maintain their power.
Many people forget how lethal governments are. Roughly 100 million citizens have been killed by their governments since 1900, all following society wide civilian disarmament. Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Khmer Rouge, etc…
Everyone gets hung up on this right left nonsense. The real spectrum is libertarian vs. authoritarian. Individuals either have a natural right to life liberty and property or they are mere property of the state.
This is why I have many guns of many different types.
