In the event that TSHTF and all hell breaks loose you have to consider what kinds of revolutions happen. Take the former Soviet Union or example. That revolution ended in communism. The French revolution ended up having French citizens killing off lots of their own people. An American style revolution is also a bloody ordeal.

While we can all look back on the warning signs of what kind of revolution was to come in the country of your choice, we have to take into account that we have 20/20 hindsight.

For now you're fine, and until somebody starts sooting at you you'll seem like a nut if you spend your day worrying about the next revolution.
