Who do you imagine you’ll be shooting? Other than the people that whoever steals the gun from you shoots?[/quote]

Whoever who is stupid enough to come inside uninvited at night. [/quote]

:D  :D  :D  :D  :D  They'd likely shoot you with your own gun faster than you could shoot them. [/quote]

People make this argument all the time with absolutely no evidence of it. Those of us who keep firearms by our beds (I'm a 50s something woman who does) have been trained and know when and how to use them. Please, show me a time when someone has had their own gun turned on them in their home. I have never seen one.[/quote]

Yes, wonderful examples that conflate the issue and leverage data to support an agenda.

In these studies a gun was used to commit an act of domestic violence against oneself or others.  Sure half of annual gun deaths are suicides and the odds of a domestic violence death by gun increase if there is a gun in the home.

How about studies where knives or other instruments are used to carry out domestic violence murders or pills are used for suicide.  So yes the gun is a method of conscience and not being used to defend one’s self in a home invasion, nothing more, nothing less.  [/quote]

Not this dumb shit again. How many times do you have to told that guns and knives are not the same thing??!!!!![/quote]
