i think that quote is madness.
and it says nothing about the substance of the post.

but i will check out the scifi suggestion--thanks.

let's say everyone did have a gun, and a scenario unfolded like the one i outlined above, and your nervousness caused you to, say, mow down a kid--how would you deal with it? as "collateral damage"? and how would killing someone by mistake not be an infringement on the rights of another individual in a kinda radical way? wouldnt the possibility of errors, and the consequences of them, run straight against the fetishism of the isolated individual so important to a libertarian viewpoint?
