No. Neither does going armed all the time. Nor does you paying attention to your whereabouts 100% of the time. Nor does "talking the guy down". NOTHING works ALL of the time. But I can't see denying someone's right to protect themselves to the best of their ability by banning a TOOL that they can use. If tool A is banned, and people turn to something else that could be deadly, then that's banned, etc. etc. etc...
