This is absolutely horrifying and heart breaking. Yet another reason why I for one will never let my government disarm me.

Yes, because being able to shoot back stops them from wanting to shoot you. Instead of Egypt you get South Sudan. Good idea.


Whoa! You're saying that it's not a good idea for a nation for all citizens to be armed? What a refreshing point of view, 85% of my friends from the US are dead set (possilby literally) on the right to bear arms. If someone tries to tell them that arming an entire country might not be a terrific idea, especially in a country with rather vast social differences and problems and no small amount of cultural opposition, the only response one gets is; "But it is my constitutional right etc etc etc."

Just because something is allowed doesn't mean it's a great idea.
