With more armed citizens, you won't need as many police, because people would understand that it's not worth it to rob a store, as someone working and/or a patron may be armed.

Oh, so now we're blessing criminals with "understanding"...as in:

Golly gee jehopefers, I better not do any criminal activities now, cos the cops are gone and some redneck might shoot me! I'll just wait to be bad until the cops come back because

I AM A DISCERNING CRIMINAL! I may not care about right and wrong and people's stuff that aint mine, but I by God know that these rednecks with shoot me if I mess with them or their stuff".

Are you nuts? Really? No, I mean really? I think you just have a hard on for the cops, and now you are trying to come up with some of the crummiest reasons I've heard, outside a Joe Biden speech. Hey, did you steal that from him? Are you one of his speech writers??!

Oh, and all those people that you think might get armed if the cops are gone...uh...dude, we're already there. Every day, all the time. Frankly, were I you, I'd be more worried about people like me that are just...armed and there.

Calm down sweetie you'll give yourself a headache. I actually saw a survey that was taken in prison. It was a survey of criminals who entered homes or robbed people. Burglars, muggers etc. They all said their biggest fear was being shot by an armed citizen. Nothing else was close, so yeah, after the first few dozen get perforated the rest will think twice.

I don’t think it’s about discernment Blu. The crooks don’t discern anything, they just pick the wrong house and get their @ss blowed off. Once it happens a few times, it starts to encourage the others.
