If you took advantage of the second Amendment then you’d be safe in all of those places.
Actually you wouldn’t. Bringing more guns for self-protection doesn’t guarantee you’ll be safe, it only guarantees there’ll be more bullets whizzing through the air that you could get hit by. And would you really trust inebriated club-goers with weapons that could kill? Or children, for that matter? Let’s say you’re kneeling down in a pew to pray and notice that the guy to the left has a semi-automatic laying on the bench, pointed at you. Is your first reaction going to be, “oh, I’m so glad he can protect me in case someone decides to do a mass shooting here,” or is it more like “why did he bring this massive gun into a place of worship oh god is he going to kill us?” Guns make people uneasy, which makes them more likely to use violence. It’s always better to take away the gun from a shooter than to arm a civilian and hope they have the guts and the speed to take the shooter out.
