Ah! One of my favorite pastimes, dueling Bible passages used out of context.

Matt. 10:34 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."

"Then Jesus said to him, 'Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.'"

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill 
If you want to be like the folks on the hill."

  In other words, I doubt He'd say much at all.  I don't picture him as someone who would get all worked up.  It would probably have something to do with judging the man's heart and not the weight of iron at his hip.  The apparent fact that you think he'd find something wrong with this is the part that baffles me.

  But then, I'm not a biblical scholar.

      People on this list might find this very disconcerting, but there is actually nothing evil about owning a firearm, or carrying a firearm for defense, or even in using a firearm not against another person or their property (though they might frown on firing one off in church).  It's only when you are shooting another person or their property with one that the moral ambiguities arise.

      Again, because I think this point is important, "firearm" (not equal to) "evil".
