    So you’d start off by getting shot? Or do you think people are just going to give you their stuff?

    Problem solved.

    Even if you managed to somehow get a group of people to follow you (why would they want to?), you’re now in a state of war. Look up the Zapatistas in Mexico and their conflict with the cartels for an example of why you won’t win.

    You’re approaching this like you’re a villain from the walking dead, real life is a bit more complicated than you ‘well I’d just get an army and win’ mentality.

      It’s an equal society, so if they have a gun, I have a gun. So I’d shoot them first. Or I’d point the gun at them and tell them to drop their gun and then do what I told them to if they don’t want to get shot.
