7. "It preferable that the victim be the one who dies in Gun Control Land"

According to a certain mentality, yes, it is preferable.

By resisting/refusing/fighting back victimhood, a pro-self defense person is shattering the concept of ideological purity that comes with being a victim.

How dare you fight back!!! I was so proud of myself for being a victim, so pure, so good. You had to fuck it all up by shooting the bad guy. Now I just look like a chump by letting people get over on me.

That's the gun-control/anti-self defense mindset in a nutshell.
