Not everyone is so far advanced spiritually that they will be able to be doing yoga in radiant zones bartering blocks of gold for rides on the great spacer with the nordics.
im far from a violent person, but for anyone who has read the john titor material or who expects martial law/civil war in the US, its not inappropriate to at LEAST be familiar with safety and matinence of firearms. of course practicing your accuracy wouldnt hurt either. T
that being said.. it depends on where and why you have guns. if u wanna loot and pillage people in chaos, then perhaps you are a jerk. no doubt these type of people exist. "jerks" if you want to protect yourself and your family, and are willing to fight for your freedom, you are whats called a "patriot".
