Should we consider arming ourselves as a “just in case”?

I have a really bad feeling that things are going to become more violent over the next few months.

66% of MAGA supporters own a firearm and they have quite literally become a cult.

I pray it never gets to that point of violence but it’s been 8 days of Trump and the price of eggs is $11. Federal grants have been put on “pause” and the world is watching and asking why Americans aren’t protesting/rioting.

I believe a revolution might be in the near future of America. Would it be wise to be prepared in order to protect ourselves?

For context I am a 29F married to a 31F we have a 13F teen in the home. The fire arm would not be used to insight violence but used as a “just in case”. Put in a lockbox in a storage closet that has a key only I have access to. I have no fire arm experience but in the state I live in a course is required in order to receive a LTC.
