Default Re: More guns the way to go? Some thoughs.

20 year old punk vs. 80 year old lady. You're the 80-year-old lady, minding her own business. Which situation is better in your book:

1) you both have clubs

2) you both have guns

[/ QUOTE ]

I would much prefer situation 1. There is no way that I could stop from being killed in situation 2 (I am obviously going to wield my weapon much slower than the 20-year old). But in situation 1, there is a high likelihood that bystanders will be able to stop the attack before I am killed.

what if said bystanders also had guns?

besides there is no way an 80 yo woman will be able to club to death a 20 yo man. With a gun she at least has a shot (no pun intended)
