I meant that with a certain %age of people, having a gun would make them more aggressive.

Actually, it's just the opposite.

Too broad of a generalization. I'm sure that most are responsible, but it's not possible for all to be. And when you put people in stressful situations, it's not easy to predict outcomes.

The fact of the matter is that an only a very tiny minority of people who have taken the time, trouble, and cash outlay to do what is necessary to ccw have ever been arrested for a gun crime. That tiny minority is far smaller than that of the general public.

If NYC continues to maintain their violation of the 2nd Ammendment, it can rest assured that its people will be defenseless in the face of violent crime and terror - both of which will return sooner or later. It always does.

80 million gun owners. 99.99999% of them have never committed a crime. Much less one involving a firearm.

If gun owners are too irresponsible and twichy to own guns, then maybe we're all too unpredictable to be free at all. After all, if you think people like me are dangerous with firearms, you should see what I can do with a 2-ton truck during rush hour.

Nice liberal arguments you got there. What next? More welfare for everyone too?
