How do you know it wouldn't have bothered me? You don't do you, you are SO bent on deciding that guns are good that you have to deomize in your own mind anyone who says different. You have to actually choose to invent your own worldview and you make the decision to judge people, something I was taught in Sunday school not to do.
Guns are good in the hands of the right people. Guns are why the strongest among us don't rule us like medieval knights of the past. You think banning good people from owning guns will eliminate all gun crime, which is not only naive, but stupid as well.
Of course you would allow the government to keep its guns, and by proxy criminals as well.
Your worldview is for the simplistic and stupid, nothing more, nothing less.
My worldview works throughout mainland Europe where both gun crime and murder rates are significantly lower than the US. Guns are not a necessity, they are designed for killing and have no place in a civilized society. The second amendment is an anachronism.
And what about other crimes? Your yobs know they don't have to face an armed victim, leaving them able to use the "might equals right" approach to criminality.
mainland europe is also a festering stinkhole of sinking populations, and rising ethnic tension due to immigrants.
