Yeah, this is unorthodox and yeah it would have it's downside but how would the wackos feel if they were faced with the likelihood that everyone over 21 was armed and proficient with said arms?

Not exactly to the point but before WWII got into full swing the Germans ask the Swiss what they would do if the Germans invaded Switzerland with 2x the number of Troops. The Swiss told them that each Swiss Soldier would just have to fire Twice.
After that Switzerland was never threatened with invasion by Germany.
So there can be a deterrent effect to be had from being armed.
In Arizona you are allowed to carry a Hand Gun as long as it is not concealed. The Anti Gun Factions prediction was there would be a Blood Bath.
Nothing of the kind happend; and of course no admission from the Antis saying they were wrong.
