Just think about it. If a retired, well trained police captain gets out of control over texting - what would the response be for an armed, untrained Joe Schmoe?
Draw your own conclusions. However, no one is advocating taking away your gun.

Road rage is another example of this. And a car is a very dangerous weapon. I remember a woman in Reno in 1980 mowing down a number of people with her car. Not sure why she did it but probably she was mentally ill.

A lot of probably normal people take on another personality when driving a crowd and put under a lot of stress.
