So very often I see conversations such as these:
The obvious response:
The same places where we're told gun-violence is -so- bad that we need to further restrict the law abiding in their exercise of the right to keep and bear arms.
If gun violence is indeed that bad, how is it unreasonable to carry a gun for self-defense?
Why is the people who ask this question never want to discuss the answer?
How is it gun violence can be so bad that we need more gun control laws, but people who want to carry a gun to protect themselves are nuts?
What's nuts is people too stupid to understand why there's gun violence in cities in such as Chicago in spite their firearm regulatory measures.
What's nuts is buying into the "good guy with a gun" lie.
What's nuts is buying into the lie that citizens carrying concealed firearms helps to "reduce crime."
What's nuts is buying into the lie that mythical "gun-free zones" contribute to mass shootings.
What's nuts is opposing perfectly appropriate and constitutional firearm regulatory measures.
What's nuts is the slippery slope fallacy of "gun confiscation."
