Protection. That would do it for me.

The only time I would even consider taking up arms against something other than a nice Mallard in flight would be to protection against some invading hoard.

Scenario...

Much to our surprise, al qaeda has infultrated 10,000 operatives into this country over the past 5 or so years. They begin to systematically invade neigborhoods, towns, and utimately cities to try to "carve out" a muslim state here. One of these groups of fist pumping extremists try to invade my neighborhood and I had no way out, as a last resort, I would be inclinded to take up arms. The operative word here is extreme circumstances.

I'm sorry, but the potential loss of certain freedoms in this country, the government searching my home for firearms are not enough to deny my wife and kids my life in theirs because I was gunned down in some armed conflict. My first job is to protect my family and I can't do that if I am lying face down in the mud somewhere. But if someone was threating my family with bodily harm, you'd better believe I'd pick up a weapon and form an army.
