China showed their willingness to deploy armored vehicles in civilian areas 30 years ago. If citizens had guns there'd be a bloodbath right now.

Would the Tiananmen Square protesters have rather had guns, or not?

They were all cool with being ground up by armored vehicles and washed down storm drains?

Would the Jews of the Holocaust have rather had guns, or not?

By not having guns, you're not preventing a bloodbath - you're delaying it, and ensuring that you're on the losing side 100% of the time.
