WAIT! THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT!!!! Scott promised us that, if the populace
were armed, they'd be able to fend off the nasty perpetrators of evil
-- those who would murder us. But look! Where guns are prevalent,
people get killed. Whoops!?

[Fer Criisssakes! Belfast has a LOWER murder rate than San Francisco!
How does that happen?]

There's no way that even a gun nut really believes that a community without
guns is going to have more gun deaths than a community with guns. Right?
