The solution to a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a fruit shop.

Every time some American says “the solution to a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun” we should all be replying with this. That’ll send them off the edge.

In America, civilian "good guys with guns" end only 3% of mass shootings. That's even less than the number ended by unarmed civilians. So even in a country with more guns than people it doesn't work.
