Yes it does but then this is not a lightweight issue.

Putting them in locked storage boxes where only a select few have the key would be a better solution, although admittedly not quite as expeditious when and if needed.
That's the problem. Unless you have on on your person it's useless in a situation we are discussing. It would be like having police officers leave their guns in the car until they go and check out the situation and figure out if they need them or not. Ludicrous.

I used to carry a pistol on me for years before I left SA. It's no big deal frankly assuming you are responsible about it. The problem would be in finding the responsible people, and agreeing on weapon type and carrying method.

But then of course I'm sure there would still be such an outcry from much of the public that it could never happen anyway.
