The number of justifiable homicides has zip to do with any of it.

You &/or you guns that make you "safer" on average have really,
really bad odds of being legally "safer" it seems.

How many "events" ended without a shot fired?

How many involved no guns?

IOW, the criminal

The guy that has the drop on you while trying to steal those
attractive guns you are running to find & load?

gives up when the legally owned gun is drawn.

Hence there should be few, if any, gun deaths, right? And
those few are all "justifiable homicides" ....

Follow the logic he If you have the fewest gun deaths when
everyone is armed then you have the most when nobody has any
guns.

Hey Cliff, you blew it this time, with a non sequitur.

??

Your logic is correct
but your conclusion is not

Oops .. then the premise/assumption/claim on which the logic operated
must be a false one.


Either that or your conclusion doesn't follow your premise.


and it contradicts the point you are trying to
make, which means your argument is a weak one.

Reducto ad absurdium...

If you have the least gun
deaths when everyone is armed then that is the condition of safety that
is
best for everyone. If you would have the most gun deaths when nobody has
any
guns that would be a good condition but one that is not possible to
achieve


If the least gun deaths occur when everyone is armed then by logic any other
condition would result in more gun deaths. According to the premise any
other situation would result in more gun deaths not fewer. You can't improve
on the least.



It would be good to have the most gun deaths?

No, but your logic is flawed. The conclusion does not follow the premise. As
you said, you have the least gun deaths when everyone is armed. Least means
least.


According to your logic the safest one can be is in a condition where
everyone is armed.


At least according to your argument. It can be logical but still not make
sense.


Simple gunlogic 101. Probably NRA certified true.

Don't know about the NRA, not a member.


It doesn't get better than that. Right?

So the gunnutz tell us.

Maybe, but what do the gunrationalists say about it? It's not better for
everyone to be armed. There are too many idiots out there. But for a
reasonable man it's a lot better to have a gun and not need one than need
one and not have it.
