The thing is, semi-automatic rifles are already here in abundance, and it would be impossible at this point to get them out of the hands of criminals. So the best thing we can do to protect ourselves from criminals with guns is for ordinary people to have guns.

You see, that's exactly it. I can't understand how people can tolerate living like that--needing to have guns in order to protect yourselves from everyone else. Americans treat this as normal...but it's not, at least not to many other people in the world. And in the middle of a crisis or shooting incident, how are the good guys supposed to know which are the bad guys when EVERYONE is carrying a gun, when everyone could potentially have been the shooter. In any case, not trying to convince anyone of anything. Just counting my blessings that I don't live in the US.
