I've been on the scenes of justifiable homicides. It happens. Usually victims aren't carrying a weapon or are taken by surprise by their attacker so they have no chance to defend themselves. If you're ever in that kind of situation, you would quickly gain an appreciation for the value of concealed carry in comparison with dying defenselessly.

If you talk to any lifelong criminal, the kind who'll be straight about it and consider it their career, they tell you they're more afraid of regular people having guns than police. They know police have guns but all they have to do is throw their hands up when they get caught. A victim tends to shoot them.
