“When you carry a gun, you mean to harm somebody, kill somebody,”

Cosby is wealthy enough to enjoy “security”, meaning bodyguards, when the circumstances indicate it. The little people don’t have the means and must fend for themselves.

I think that Cosby hasn’t realized that there is a difference between defense and offense. Surely over the several decades that Cosby been a well-earned celebrity, he has been under the protection of armed security personnel. So who exactly is the “you” in his complaint? Is “you” the average person just wanting to exercise his unalienable right of self-defense? Of is “you” the little people who must all be denied arms because someone might do something that Cosby disapproves of? Surely “you” is not the criminal or murderer.

That's as bad as saying you wear a seatbelt because you're planning on being in an accident. One wears a seatbelt in case there is a situation which requires the safety of the belt. I adopt that same analogy as to why I legally carry.
