I understand that, and I know D. was referring to something else.
The thread that I hoped was obvious was that, though "normal criminals" may
fear the armed citizen, the presence of armed good guys in no way guarantees
peace, here or abroad. Part of our problem right now is that we have a good
man in the White house who loves simple solutions and generalities- can be a
problem in today's world...
This from someone who has written publicly for fifteen years in support of
legal carry, so don't worry- I want y'all to hang onto your guns :-)
Some people fear armed Americans, some (including some Americans) do not.
