I think you're being overly optimistic.


Indeed. The problem with this utopian ideal is that it is functionally
impossible, anywhere in the world, to have a community without guns.

That being the case, the argument is fallacious at its core.


There are lots of communities in the world where no one has a gun. And
amazingly, no one gets shot there!
