Yeah. I am pretty sure all those pictures I saw of them with them holding M16s and mini 14s means that if the crap should ever hit the fan, company policy is going to go down with a hail of bullets. You don't go packing that kind of firepower and then never expect to use it. Some of those guys also had some pretty big pistols. I don't mean pussified little 9mm pop guns either. (Sorry, no offense to 9mm owners, just a personal thing, I want a gun with real stopping power) And on one tv news snippit, I think I may have saw a couple of uzis.
And you don't tell people that you can have a sidearm along with you in a militia and then actually expect them to keep it at rest when a situation goes bad. Reality dictates the battlefield. If many of these guys actually have any sort of small (or large) arms training, or military background, and somebody lobs off a shot, I would bet hard cash money that training and instinct will kick in, and there will suddenly be a lot of guns out of their holsters.
If the company policy actually meant anything at all, they wouldn't allow guns at all.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
