These are all standard talking points. I'll just respond to one of them: let me ask you, do you and your family wear helmets when driving around in a car? No? Don't you think you and your family would be way better off wearing a helmet in the middle of a car wreck, rather than having to wait for the paramedics to arrive, who are only out for themselves in the first place? Why are you so comfortable risking death or serious injury in not wearing a helmet when you drive a car? Ponder that then ponder your decision to walk around in a developed civilized nation with a firearm. Also ponder the externalities you impose on innocent bystanders: the risk of accidental discharge, the risk of missing a target and hitting a bystander, the risk of unnecessarily escalating a nonviolent situation into a violent one, the risk of drawing fire in you and your family's direction, the risk of having to hesitate between running and shooting, etc etc. Ponder further: do you wear body armor? Wouldn't that make you safer? Why don't you go outside without full body armor?
