AST (After Sean Taylor)-To gun or not to gun?

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

I still don't quite understand the logic, "To combat the threat of guns, we need to give everyone guns." It's akin to the U.S. arguing in the Cold War, "to combat the threat of nuclear arms, we need to proliferate nukes." Gun-advocates view gun-control proponents as naive, but I'm not sure that people who believe 99% of people can handle guns are themselves entirely in touch with reality.
