Inquire of the Swiss, if you don't credit the Americans.
Notice that many of the genocidal governments/groups also use things like tanks, airstrikes, missiles and/or massive number of armed men on the order of the thousands. Your standard gun, no matter how big, will be more or less useless against them. Not one of them uses small groups of guys who simply have nothing better to do and might find pause in an armed angry man (or family) for any of the genocides that get heard about. One man in his house with his hands full of guns is not going to stop any of those if they really want to kill you. If they can't get in, they'll just burn you out... then you can go down in a blaze of Honor and Glory and Napalm.
