     I agree, if what you mean is that this is the issue that divides the 
debaters.  I was impressed with the sincerity of jspence's post, which 
seemed to try to make some sense out of the debate.

     But who is saying that anyone will be forced to own a gun?  I, too, 
perceive no need for the ordinary citizen to own a gun. I don't own a 
gun.  I hope I never have to get a gun to defend the ordinary citizen's 
right to own one.
