Indeed it would. I mean what is a thief, or a burglar ? At their core they are liberal socialists. A burglar sees a disparity in wealth distribution and proceeds to redistribute your wealth without your consent. And if he is armed and you deem him to be a threat, you put a peace of lead in him and there is one less socialist in the world. So yes, without liberals and socialists the need for guns would drop drastically.
peace = piece.
To quote G.K. Chesterton:
"Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it."
Cheers!
