I might sorta-kinda concede on that, although the severity might differ with a gun verus without. But I didn't address this type of scenario:
I read this article and decide to go buy a gun. It's in the glovebox. Some guy nearly hits me and then cuts me off on the way to work. I get a call from my kid's school that she's been suspended and my boss says to pack things up, sorry no severance. On the drive home, that same SOB appears and nearly hits me again. Okay ... you get the point.
Average Jo(e) has a real shit day. Something happens and s/he loses control momentarily. If that person chose to begin carrying a gun when this law enabled them to carry, no harm would have come to anyone. But when that person crosses that line of sanity for a brief moment, I would not want to be around that person in possession of a firearm.
