이게 rooftop Korean이 미국에서 총기소지 찬성측 주장의 심장을 꿰뚫는 모습이나 다름없어서 그렇습니다. 미국의 건국은 개인의 권리와 재산에 대한 영국정부의 불합리한 침해에 맞선 민병대로서 시작됐기 때문에 더욱 그렇습니다. 그런데 지금 안정된 미국사회에서는 미정부가 자국 국민을 탄압하거나 정부기능을 상실할 일이 사실상 없다보니 그런 고루한 주장이 힘을 잃어가고 있었습니다. 그러던 와중에 rooftop Korean이 정부가 시민을 보호하지 못할 때(다만 이때 이민자들은 영주권만 취득한 이들이 많아서 시민으로 보기에는 무리가 있었습니다. 그래서 미국경찰이 더 쉽게 손을 놔버렸다는 의견도 있구요.) 시민들이 무장하여 스스로의 재산과 권리를 지키는 모습을 정확히 보여줘 버린겁니다. 무장한 민병대가 다른 지역을 약탈한 것도 아니고 정확히 자신의 재산과 권리를 위해서만 그 힘을 쓰고 상황이 정리된 뒤 해산하다 보니 미국의 총기소지 찬성측에서는 주목하지 않을수가 없었죠. 자신들이 말하던 미국인의 모습을 그대로 재현해버렸으니까요.
