I think what galleliao1663 was talking about was the fact of escalation. He is more afraid that when people start protecting themselves the criminals will start increasing their arsenal.


He's a moron, he doesn't know what he's talking about! According to his sense of logic the only reason criminals use guns is because there's a chance that their potential targets are armed.

According to him, if everybody was disarmed the criminals wouldn't have guns because they wouldn't need them.

According to him, the concept of people arming themselvs scares criminals so much that they're forced to invest in bigger and more powerful guns just so they can stay on top of the predatory food chain. According to that they'll be stealing more rifles for simple muggings and car jackings even though they'd be too bulky and cumbersom to use for such.
