From where I stand, we are.we aren't exactly living in dystopian caveman dog eat dog world.
No, it does not. But, it does level the playing field. An armed woman (or man for that matter) can more readily fend off an armed attack than one who is unarmed....hey if everyone has guns, it doesn't mean that everyone is safe.
I disagree. If someone were to offer me violence, I have every intention of giving them more violence in return than they can handle. Criminals and thugs only understand violence. Reason and civility does not enter their thinking. If it did, they would not be criminals and thugs.there has to be a better way - and i dont think violence is ever the answer.
The late Col. Jeff Cooper (USMC, retired) once said that "a rifle is an inanimate object, and therefore has no will of its own. It is neither good nor evil. And while an evil man will not be persuaded by propaganda, he may certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
