If the second amendment leads to deaths (and I dont believe it does but for the sake of argument I will go along with the premise) it leads to far fewer deaths than the dictatorial regime we would eventually be saddled with if we gave up the right to defend ourselves as private citizens

I think he's saying that if guns are allowed in a free society, that there will inevitably be innocent deaths via the use of guns. I don't think that he's saying that these deaths would not occur were there no 2A, but those who are calling for the repeal of the 2A seem to be making that unreasonable assumption.
