But wait. Some say this tragedy can be prevented by reducing the percentage of armed public.
Say its cut in half, from 50,000 to 25,000. This yields 250 potentially violent gunowners, which if 1 percent pull the trigger means 2.5 victims.
This represents an improvement. Unless as some argue the presence of fewer guns emboldens the 250 potentially violent citizens with guns, so that they kill more often.
This is an exceptionally simplistic sketch of the issue; I know you can improve on it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. Robert Heinlein |
