I agree with the sentiment of this statement.
Do you know of a way to ensure that is the case, that only the people who can be counted on to use a gun correctly in a crazy situation are allowed to take the gun out of the house with them?
It seems to me, the system as it is now does not have any way to enforce this idea.
A repeating theme of some comments is not "if only a trained, experienced LEO or military personnel was there", but the more generic "if only 1 more person in that theatre was carrying, then fewer would be killed".
That's the point I am trying to make. Those two kinds of people are NOT interchangable. One is an asset (but in short supply), and one is a liability (but in generous supply).
ps: dont knock the batman leotard till you've tried it !
