Any country where you need a gun in order to feel safe walking around is a shithole.

Yeah it's kind of wild to me the number of people that think teachers having guns is a good idea, that way teachers can get into a shootout with students that go crazy. Absolutely insane.

Does it actually make you feel safer? I think I would feel less safe every time I remember I have a gun on me because I may need to use it.

None of those gun nuts have ever been able to answer my basic question about their stated goal of everyone carrying at all times -

You're at a public event, few hundred+ people in attendance,everybody (even just most) are packing. A gun goes off. Every "Good guy with a gun" turns toward the sound while pulling their guns. You now have 50-100+ (adjusted for crowd size) people with guns drawn. How do you know which of the 50-100+ people actually fired their gun?

Noone has ever had any answer other than "oH yOuD kNoW" which, call me crazy, doesn't really answer the question.
