Notice this always happens in states without constitutional carry.

Drawing a weapon would have only gotten them perforated. No this warrants a few pounds of C4 and the willingness to die to set an example.

Most people aren't willing to make such a commitment, even though all our lives are forfeit at this point.

You say this as if it is easy/possible for most people to:

  1. Acquire C4
  2. Safely store it in their vehicle without arousing suspicions of their family and friends
  3. be able to detonate it at a moment’s notice but never accidentally.

Difficult, but my point was that if we're going to respond with violence, guns will be not very effective. But there are other ways that will be.

ETA C4 is actually stable enough to be safely stowed, and is very hard to accidentally detonate. Typically we civilians have to resort to dynamite or homemade explosive compounds which deteriorate and are less reliable, either discharging when they shouldn't or failing to when they should.

I think they were more referring to taking action like a oklahoma city type thing. It's nearly as ridiculous to set up c4 in your car for this scenario as the people who keep guns by the bed and masturbate to the thought of a home invasion.
