So if I want to make sure I'm safe, I better buy one too." and you can take it from there what happens again and again.

I disagree. It all depends who has the gun. I know cops who carry concealed weapons. More or less, for personal safety. They arrest someone, and then they're spotted in the street, they become a target. Sure, gangsters carry guns. But in reality, those guys are the stupidest bunch of kids I've ever seen. I don't mind if these gangsters shoot each other, one less stupid person in the world. The problem is they can't hit ****. They don't know how to carry a gun, or shoot one. They end up hitting more people down the street, and they rarely hit their target within the first 50 shots.
I don't mind people carrying guns for their own personal safety. The problem is certain people having those guns, and more importantly, the laws. If i was in a bank, and it was taken hostage. I could shoot the guy, get everyone out safely, be thanked by the cops, and then still get put in jail. It's a lose-lose situation with guns.
