Because more guns equals less violence, according to some. Sure, that’s been disproven (more guns lead to more homicide), but don’t tell that to any NRA member.
In February, President Trump proposed solving the mass shooting problem currently plaguing our country by arming “gun adept” teachers who have “military or special training experience.” His reasoning seems to be that if a possible school shooter knew that any given teacher may have secret gunslinger skills, he or she would think twice before opening fire. |

The war of the battling statistics continues. It's actually been well documented that there is a beneficial effect to an armed society. I lost all respect for the linked article when liar Hemenway was mentioned. That guy is a proven liar and dissembler. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
