‘Political Correctness Kills!’: TheBlaze Readers Respond to Police Chief Who Said a Gun ‘Is Not a Defensive Weapon’

SEANA, I get your point, but I respectfully disagree. You said it yourself, “The mere presence of a gun on a person implies that they will fight back”. It’s the threat of offense the gun represents that deters the bad guy, they have little defensive value as a shield.
And I agree about the open carry as a crime deterrent as apposed to concealed carry.

The_Jerk, That’s a good one. Defensive shield for offensive purpose… it appears you understand my point completely.

Guns are offensive. They are not shields. They only way they are affective is if they are fired, which is an offensive act. That doesn’t mean the offensive act is not used for a defensive purpose.
