Sorry about the confusion. I made a few changes, please discard what I previously sent you and use the following. The prevention of genocide through an armed citizenry will save human lives.
Genocide is a human rights violation that dwarfs all other crimes.
Unless one can propose a different method of ending endemic genocide, than the authors' prescriptions stand as the best, and only, potentially effective medicine. The burden has shifted to the opponents of firearms rights to either come up with a more effective anti-genocide medicine or to admit that saving lives was never the primary objective of the gun prohibition movement in the first place. The biggest murderer in this century has been governments gone bad.
