The Dalai Lama on self defense

I received an email news letter this morning that contained the following quote from the Dalai Lama:

"If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun."
-- The Dalai Lama, in The Seattle Times, May 15, 2001

This makes more sense than anything I have heard any leader in the USA say for a long time. Maybe we should get the Dalai Lama to run for office.
