I'm also not too worried about it, but realize that there have been a fair number of rights limiting legislation and executive orders.

Conversely, ( and I don't think it is likely) when certain websites and venues become openly hostile (with explicit details) to maintaining order in the event of a particular upcoming political event, I can't imaging most gun owners sitting around and waiting for violent civil unrest to affect them directly, but may become proactive in the protection of their families and protection.

At least in most parts of Texas and the Southwest, starting a riot is likely a sucker bet at best.
