A lot of idiots claim that the NRA wants everyone to be armed. They’ve never advocated that, as far as I know, but there is a case to be made for it.

It’s not new, but Glenn Reynolds co-wrote a paper on this a while ago.

I’m not in favor of compulsory anything, and that would include gun ownership. But the time has definitely come to become an activist for gun ownership, and for universal, permitless concealed carry. As Godzilla will probably note, people will continue to die. But there will be fewer such deaths.
I’m a lot less concerned about the absolute number of deaths than I am in seeing to it, as best we can, that the people who actually need killing are represented as heavily as possible in the stats.
