Some years ago, a deranged fellow opened fire inside a restaurant in
Texas. This incident was cited often in the campaign to pass a
"concealed carry" law here (the theory being, several people in the
restaurant had weapons outside in their vehicles; if they had had
them on their persons, someone could have stopped him.) So now,
Texans can obtain licences to carry concealed weapons.
Similar incident, different result ...
Hmmm, given the choice between the two, I opt for the one that doesn't
involve civilians executing each other, even though the alternative is
equally daft in it's own way.
So what we've really established in this discussion is: No matter how
governments respond to a situation, somebody will be displeased. Oh well!
