"We can arm our people, but we can't house our people. We can load them up like a heavy-weapons platoon, but we can't arrange a one-room efficiency for the winter. We can hand them an AR-15 and say, 'Go with god,' but we can't protect them, and we can't protect our fellow citizens against well-armed madmen. 'Shelter in place' has no chance against 'open carry.'"
