    Still getting used to Lemmy! I’m not getting notifications about when I’m being responded to. I dunno.

    The “good guy with a gun” thing is absolutely hard to swallow, I can agree with that. But you must concede that if it wasn’t true, why would the President and most politicians making gun laws have a security detail with guys that are armed with guns? Why would the police carry guns? Why do banks have security guards that carry guns?

    It’s also a weird argument to say that I have a 1/100 chance of being rescued by a guy with gun Vs being killed.

    So the answer to defending yourself or others from the guy with the knife is what? Wait for someone else, like Uvalde? Be a meat shield? Even if it’s 1 out of 100, I would rather not wait to be hurt.
