I don't. Obama is not concerned about reducing peacetime gun violence in Arab world, so giving out guns to Syrians is not considered in the same light as gun ownership in US.

Left concern with guns is about domestic peacetime abuse. We don't object to police or military having them. We wouldn't even object to "well regulated militia" , if one existed today, having them.

It is Right's complete unwillingness to take basic steps to keep the guns out of hands of violent criminals and nutters that even makes whole thing controversial.
