If airline passengers had been armed there wouldn’t have been a 9/11. If islamics knew we would be armed in places where they wanted to attack us they might fade away.

Like the Japanese kamikazes of WWII, most terrorist attacks are suicide missions.
They'll never "fade away" and the only way to stop them is to kill them before they act.

For some reason, I was selected for “random screening” at Logan very early one morning. I had just gotten back from Logan at about 11:00 pm the previous evening and was tired and visibly annoyed. The TSA hack who was frisking me told me that they had found a “gentleman with a 9 mm” only a few days previous. “Now what does a gentleman need with a 9mm?” he asked, rhetorically. It took all my restraint not to reply, “Maybe if a few gentleman departing from this airport on 911 had had 9mm’s hacks like you wouldn’t have jobs.”
