There was no 911 to call the police with. There werent any cars either, so in many cases the nearest town was hours or even days away. People back kept their guns at home and took care of problems THEMSELVES, they couldnt just sit on their asses in a gated community and rely upon a nanny-state government for protection. Armories existed to store artillery and large quantities of gunpowder and extra rifles, but the average person still kept a gun at home for hunting as well as protection and militia service.</blockquote>
