Tell me: Do you think, if just ONE law abiding citizen were carrying
concealed on each of the planes on 9/11, that that heinous event would
even have happened? No, it wouldn't.

Why do you think you have a 2nd Amendment right? Because it is to
provide you with a defense, last ditch, against loss of civil
liberties, big government, etc.
You can defend yourself against these threats, but only if you are
actually willing to do so. Many people lack the frame of mind necessary
to self defense, especially against abstract threats. The bad guys
don't need to be shooting at you to have already initiated force
against you. When the opposition outlaws your existence, they have
loosed the dogs of war, for they have authorized the use of the state
police apparatus to use force against you. The only rational response
to such an initiation of force is to respond with force.
