The analogy, as it pertains to preparedness, is entirely applicable.
By putting on your seatbelt, you a preparing yourself to possibly reduce injury or even death in the event of an automobile crash.
By carrying a firearm, if you choose to do so legally, You are ALSO preparing yourself to possibly reduce injury or even death in the event of a violent encounter.
Therefore, the analogies are the same.
Mmmmkayyyy?

Is your holster going to protect you? Moron. Lol

Like a seat belt. You can feel however you like about carrying a weapon. It is irrelevant to the analogy. But you should see the analogy is weak, at best. It has been explained a few different times in somewhat different ways. If you can’t see it, I have to believe it is because you don’t want to.

So you can't answer your own question. Just the typical libtard world salad.
Got it.

Ok, fair play, i’ll give ya that one ——specifically that armor and seat belts protect only against adverse situations that have already occurred

however, i think we can all agree that preventing the adverse situation in the first place, would be preferable

Yes. The moment you put on your seat belt, you have an added level of protection. But that is the end of the action. When you holster up, the protective measure only after you have drawn the weapon with the intention of causing someone else potentially lethal injury. And on that action, you could potentially cause injury to an innocent bystander. The seatbelt analogy is weak at best.

No it isn’t. And that’s fine. I don’t harbor any ill will towards people that carry. But you have to know the analogy is weak.

Here’s the thing:

The analogy isn’t
weapon :: seat belt

it is
personal defense readiness :: seat belt

the nut of the analogy is:

Preventing undesirable outcomes from unlikely but plausible adverse events
—-

Now, if you don’t agree with the analogy, that’s OK and I recognize your point about body armor

that does not mean the analogy itself is weak and tbh i don’t think there’s a lot of mileage to be got from continuing to assert that
