When everyone is carrying a gun you can't differentiate between the good

 Canadians are just nicer than USians.  OTOH, "they're not even a real country anyway!"

 That's your best is it?

Not worth the full effort.
We have lots of guns and lots of criminals.  More than we have cops. Aside from wishing, and in the full knowledge that this situation will continue for the indefinite future, what do you think the average law-abiding citizen should do in case of attack by a criminal?
Yeah, most people don't carry.  Would there be more or less crime if armed criminals KNEW that their intended victims were NOT carrying?
That's all the effort I'm going to put into an argument that's gone on for decades.
