Guns in America: Arming the right people can save lives
|
Well of course. But who are the "right" people?
Police, licensed security guards, obviously military people (although they aren't deployed within the US, typically) ... heck even in low-gun cultures like Japan those types are armed.
Then there's the grey zone of Concerned Citizens, with or without background checks and thorough training.
Then there's the dark side of criminals and mentally ill.
Where should the line be? No-one, except some of Adak's straw men, suggest complete disarmament. It's just that the US draws the line further down that list than most countries, and firepower trickles even further down.
