OWNING MORE GUNS IS NOT A DETERRENT

How many good people is it justifiable for automatic weapon owners to kill? Who decides that? A culture that takes violence seriously and takes gun ownership seriously? Is violence serious only when bad people kill good people? How many more good people will have to carry guns in public to generate a serious deterrent? Cannot good people accept the logic of a syllogism that argues that fewer people die when it is harder to lay hands on killing machines? The good guys already own twice as many guns per person as any other nation on earth.
