Carrying a gun always, always represents the threat to use that gun to kill or maim another. That, after all, is why these people carry their guns.
That is not why we carry a gun. He just doesn't get it, does he?

Good Grief! How did he get to be the Mayor of a significant major northern city?

It sounds like "these people" are his security detail and city employees who carry guns.
