    Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't the largest killing of civilians on American soil take place in a scenario whereby civilians were forced to disarm and rely on the protection of authorities instead of themselves?

    It is not a "what if" at all.

    Is it not true that the largest killing of civilians on American soil took place in a scenario whereby individuals were forced to surrender their arms an instead rely on authorities for their protection?

    :stickpoke:

    it's opening the door for your next what if statement..LOL

    I doubt if thousands of gun owners firing at a plane from the ground, OR shooting holes in a pressurized cabin from inside would have prevented it from crashing ;)

    We don't know what may have happened.

    We only know what DID happen.

    "DID"

    we know what resulted from SOMEONE's actions....and you mean to imply that result could have been different had people on the aircraft been armed...and in a general sense I would tend to agree but then you would have no way to know who is boarding a plane armed, is doing so legally and with only good intentions

    Is it not true that the largest massacre on a military installation on US soil was by a Licensed Gun Owner using an FN FiveSeven?

    Just as in your scenario... so what? You are using the same logic that anti's use. Because it HAS happened one way, doesn't mean it is always that way but that didnt stop the antis from using the Ft Hood shooting to demonize Licensed Gun Onwers, and even trying to ban the FiveSeven..

    Again, I hate that the People are disarmed in an event like this, but that doesnt mean I want the Cops disarmed TOO, it means I want the People armed..

    See the difference? :dunno:
