“An armed society is a polite society.”

Yeah, except for the guy starting an argument with a woman sitting in a car when her husband walks inside. That wasn’t polite. Part of that polite society quote involves armed people avoiding bickering, arguing, etc.

The key part is that you know they are armed.

An armed society may be a polite society, but when politeness doesn’t happen, it gets resolved pretty quickly, and pretty finally.
