Well that sounds alarming, but in Mexico they do have armed police everywhere and the citizens actually feel safer. I don't wish for a dystopian "big brother" world either, but with so many mental people abusing their gun rights and killing others, that is looking more and more like a not so implausible possibility. Frankly, I'd rather have police armed and everywhere than most lay people running around, pulling a gun every time someone looks at them funny or gives the them wrong order at McDonalds.
