Ok. I am not quite sure why this isn't considered common sense by now. I've yet to hear an intelligent response to it. Criminals are criminals because they break the law. So making a law doesnt restrict criminals. Its only restricts those who respect the law, IE the good guys. So we have good guys who are not leggally allowed to carry weapons and the bad guys who are gonna carry weapons one way or the other. Who gets the short stick? The good guys. Now if ya give the good guys weapons, then the bad guys would think twice before committing the crime in the first place, or better yet they'd get shot. If they get shot we have less criminals, if they dont we have less crime. Whats the problem?
The only real response ive ever heard of is the thinking that if you give people weapons they will suddenly turn into vicious monsters who only want to kill each other. That suddenly because someone is armed they will want to take advantage of everyone around them. Sorry mate, but I think youve been watching too much Michael Moore. People aren't animals. If power to kill automatically fostered a desire to kill then all the buff people would be murdering psychopaths. Uh nuh. So what, your not gonna let us protect ourselves from the bad guys because your afraid of the good guys?
