"This means that in a world where machine guns are common, everybody has to be afraid all the time."

You're assuming that more and bigger guns means more danger, when the opposite is true.

.50 caliber anti-material rifles which can crack an engine block a mile away have never been used in crime, and until very recently were not in any way regulated. (California, no big surprise. 2005.)
