The "It takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun" argument is all that you'll get from any gun advocate. The fact that all evidence shows that the more guns there are in general circulation, the more bloodshed you'll get, just can't stand up to that emotive and self-serving attitude. In my time on SE I have gone from confusion that people can be so stupid, to anger that people can be so stupid, to sad resignation that there is no point arguing with stupid people.

Especially the intelligent ones who aren't quite intelligent enough to appreciate their own stupidity.
