The Good Guys with Guns argument

Just because people are armed in churches doesn't mean more people aren't going to die in churches form mass murderers. After all, there have already been 2 churches hit in just two months and the Las Vegas Shooting that killed 58 and wounded well over 500 people.

I think the point is that if ushers in churches are legally carrying weapons at least they might be able to shoot back before the whole congregation is dead and gone and if neighbors to the church are armed then even if they are napping and barefoot they can shoot and stop the shooters before they kill even more people.

So, do Good Guys with Guns stop all killings?

Absolutely not!

But, what do they do?

They shoot the shooters before they can kill or bomb even more people.

And this is true.

And unfortunately this is our future this century in America.

It doesn't matter if it is a mentally deranged person or a deranged terrorist. Both need to be stopped.

And guns seem to be the only way to do that now. And citizens with guns will help the police with this.

So, in a sense we all are the citizen posse nationwide now if we are legally armed and trained to assist our citizens and police to stay alive by shooting terrorists and other shooters.
