I'm not sure what the proportion of citizens armed with firearms has to do with this. Its about rights of citizens in the country, all of whom can defend themselves and end life without trial in the correct circumstance, being self-defence (as it should be).

And nobody in the country should have the right to detain you without trial. If you really believe this I'm afraid that is quite short sighted.

No, I’m just saying that, given two poor choices, I’d rather not have firearms in the equation.

But police do have the right to detain you without trial. For years, sometimes - see Kalief Browder.
