Having grown up in a survivalist-heavy environment with lots of guns and lots of survivalists (had a friend remark "I coulda won Waco" once) it's entirely about doing what you want and punishing others for doing what you don't want. It's the desire for ultimate power while eschewing ultimate responsibility.
