Mr. Hardy, the spam filter blocks any reference, no matter how oblique, to the story I quoted in the comment above. I will send it by email.
On the other hand, check this out (via Legal Insurrection):
After Westgate, Interpol Chief Ponders 'Armed Citizenry'
"Societies have to think about how they're going to approach the problem," [Interpol Secretary General] Noble said. "One is to say we want an armed citizenry; you can see the reason for that. Another is to say the enclaves are so secure that in order to get into the soft target you're going to have to pass through extraordinary security."
"For me it's a profound question," he continued. "People are quick to say 'gun control, people shouldn't be armed,' etc., etc. I think they have to ask themselves: 'Where would you have wanted to be? In a city where there was gun control and no citizens armed if you're in a Westgate mall, or in a place like Denver or Texas?'"
