I can't add a whole lot to this one since it basically sums up my views on the subject. Maybe I would add that people should be educated on gun safety, encouraged to do some target practice so they feel comfortable with the firearm- being nervous with it is a recipe for disaster. You wouldn't want to pull a gun on a gunman if you didn't know how to use it.

You are not all wrong. When writing the opposing argument to this topic, I did mention that anxiety, in someone who is armed, could lead to a fatal mistake. And unfortunately, anxiety is something that far too many of us, and more it seems each day, are afflicted by.
I didn't like the structure I chose for this experiment, however. I think starting to tomorrow I am going to change it to a formal debate between myself and I, beginning with the side I currently align with each time, and picking it apart point by point.
