So, the latest neologism is "firearmed" eh? (Nothing artificial like "hoplophobe", of course.)

Just imagine how much better off you'll be empty-hand against an armed assailant, just as long as he's not "firearmed". As if a law is going to stop him if he thinks he needs a gun. But of course he doesn't, because he knows *you* won't be "firearmed". Maybe he'll be nice and just use CS...or a ceramic knife...or a baseball bat.

So, if you've nothing further beyond handwaving at the kids on K5, we'll bid adeiu to this thread.
