And on the flip side, the US Sec Def recently allowed US soldiers to carry loaded weapons on base (when not in a role that required it, which was previously disallowed). I expect this will increase suicides on US military bases. All for some "rah rah, 2A, mah rights!!!" bullshit political posturing.


That policy has long been a kinda funny "gee, why don't they allow it if more 'good guys with guns' make us safer?" example.

I guess at least this removes that bit of rhetorical inconsistency... at, guaranteed, a notable cost in lives.
