Care to back up that claim?
- legulere 11y agoSorry I'm currently unable to find the source where I got this from under the tons of statistics how having a gun at home is actually making you more unsafe. Maybe I'm just not using the right vocabulary because English isn't my native tongue.
- Frondo 11y agoI don't know about robbers wrestling your gun from you and using it against you, but the data suggest that your idea about "I'm going to protect myself with guns" is a fiction.

(though I suspect it'll make you uncomfortable and you'll just look for ways to discredit it, because it's a heck of a lot easier to hold onto a John Wayne-esque "I'm a big man with a gun" self-identity...)
