It's easier said than done to avoid a dangerous situation. What if you go into a convenient store and a man comes in with a gun attempting to rob that store. You do not know what that person is capable of. They could easily have the thought of leaving no witnesses. If I have a gun, I stand a chance. If I am unarmed I stand no chance. Having a gun could save mine as well as other's lives.
Again, more of a risk in some areas than others. How many have you been party to?
And if can't defend yourself without a gun, you can't with one. It is false to say you have no chance without a gun. The greatest weapon is always the mind.
