JB Van Hollen trusts people with guns in the Capitol.

Maybe they’ll think twice when they attack the middle class, or raise taxes?
jsonline: Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen said Thursday he would be comfortable with allowing people to carry guns in the Capitol and other state buildings. "I don't have a problem with it, but I'm not going to have a say in that," the Republican attorney general said in an interview.

"One of the oldest arguments out there is that the criminals - the ones who aren't entitled to have firearms - are carrying concealed already," he added. "They're the ones we're worried about, not the ones who are going to be abiding by the law."

Is Van Hollen right? That only criminals with guns are the ones to fear. We know that it's not possible that someone exercising their Constitutional right to carry and protect themselves against a radical government, will use the threat of a gun to make their elected politician think twice about carrying out a radical agenda? 

Not likely. Normal everyday citizens aren’t criminals and never will be. Only criminals at birth, the ones with guns, are the ones we have to worry about.
