The thing the gun nuts omit, and I mean the ones that proudly have an apocalypse arsenal, is that they intend to be the marauders stealing other people's stuff on the freeway. Those types, almost always conservative and thus devoid of empathy, believe they'll thrive in the wasteland by virtue of having so many guns, when the reality is, seeking out constant armed confrontation as a way of life in a lawless world means you'll be dead very quickly, because other people have guns too. They just don't fetishize them or have a ridiculous number of them.
