Notice these nuts are never crazy enough to try this crap at a gun range?
Do the math. The more guns in the hands of the citizenry the less likely an attack by a crazy.
“Notice these nuts are never crazy enough to try this crap at a gun range?”
Well duh. So you want the whole nation to be a gun range? I don’t. I have no desire to live around people firing guns all the time.
Why, you may ask?
Think about it. If a "bad guy", even the baddest, doesn't know who is armed and ready to defend themselves, or where these types of people may be, they think twice before attempting to commit crimes.
Now this may not deter the REALLY crazy types, but, these REALLY crazy types will have less of a chance to inflict bodily harm on multitudes of people if there is someone nearby that has a firearm that can shoot back.
And yes, when I say everyone, I mean everyone that wants to carry, including ex-convicts (They have paid their debt to society), bad LEOs, soccer moms, even politicians.
Not a very well thought out response. Sounds like something directly from the Brady Bunch, "blood in the streets" garbage.

So let’s see, my response wasn’t well-thought out but your response pointing out that homicidal maniacs don’t go to firing ranges to kill people was? Come on.
The more guns in the hands of the average citizen = less crime. The crazies will go somewhere else. Perhaps somewhere that people live in a utopia where guns and evil doesn’t exist.
Pretty simple. Name a place where people are fairly heavily armed where these shooters show up. They go to “gun-free” zones.
I would draw a picture but I simply don’t have the time.
