In my opinion, one is not free (not in today's world) just because he can carry a gun at his side. People need to free themselves in their own mind first. In comment sections online (not the best place...) I've been called a few times a "slave" by some amercian supposed "patriots" because, being from Europe, I "can't have guns" (which is not even true), while people such as these believe in governemnt anyway, support the inhuman war on terror based on lies and false flags, and want closed militarized borders (but not militarized police in their neighborhoods...). Not state-supporting slaves, huh?
That said, be that as it may, I am unapologetically pro-gun. Guns don't belong to psychopaths who see themselves invested of a divine right to rule, they belong to the people. There will always be a danger inherent with certain types of objects, but that danger gets way bigger to an unimaginable degree if such objects are monopolized by a group of psychopaths that then will be able to do whatever the hell they want to those they disarmed.
