Uhh... where I live, there is a much higher percentage of people who are armed. and you THEY ARE THE ONES I'M AFRAID OF. Now, I suppose arming myself would at least mean that I could shoot back, if shot at, or maybe shoot first if threatened. The only problem is if I'm dead I can't shoot back, and if there are more of them I'm still dead even if I shoot first. So, I guess I could go get some bigger guns and shoot sooner, oh wait, now I'm the reason all of those people armed themselves, and they are proven right. Shit, guess I'm outta luck.
