Does owning a hand gun for protection make you more safe or less safe?

That might be true, but all too often they kill innocent people.

80% of those who are murder victims involving a firearm are criminals who cannot legally own guns and 80% of those who commit such murders are banned from possessing a gun. anyone who possesses a gun with criminal intent is also engaging in felony violations.
 
She may have been described as a "responsible gun owner", but the incident proves that she ultimately wasn't.

I apologize if I mistook you for a gun grabber. Glad you support the 2A.

I think if it were up to him he'd implement far more restrictive gun laws. He is a supporter of anti gun politicians such as Obama
 
why, this ought to be wort some serious mirth

I shot a mugger who along with his homey, assaulted me. So I was safer. so were the two muggers. The gunshot wound instantly stopped the attack upon me and the other mugger suffered only the indignity of crapping himself. If I did not have the gun, I would have had to use the butterfly knife I had in my pocket meaning both muggers would have been cut in the rapid multiple slashing patters in silat. meaning both would have been seriously injured or killed

you using one incident is really sloppy intellectually

Okay here's a more detailed one.



There hasn't been a conservative politician in years. They're all socialists that Co-Op rural and traditional valued people in order to attain their vote. Then they proceed to expand government on average even more than the democrat does. Nobody who actually wants to be in public service is a capitalistic minded person. They're all from the socialist mindset even if they ply capitalism to their ends.
 
I can do this all night.

when I make a peanut butter and banana sandwich, I like to apply both the banana and peanut butter to the bread, and then butter, using unsalted butter of course, the outside of the sandwich and lightly toast it on a skillet... but here is the key, peanut butter must be applied to both pieces of bread before assembly, this ensures that the banana will still be cool and crisp while the peanut butter is warm and smooth.

so in the end , our arguments are very similiar....











.......neither has **** all to do with handguns making people safe or less safe.
 
At the end of the day, it's urban black and mexican gangbangers killing each other and then white rural country people killing each other. Sometimes people never learn.. The ironies are truly massive.
 
horse crap. guns are designed to project a bullet

I have personally projected thousands of bullets down range via a firearm.

Have yet to kill anyone or anything.

gangbangers killing each other makes the rest of us safer.

What does criminal activity have to do with law abiding citizens protecting themselves from harm? I mean, besides nothing.

gun haters think owning a gun is "criminal"
 
gun haters think owning a gun is "criminal"

Right, unless of course they are wealthy enough to hire others to carry guns to protect them on their behalf. Hypocrites.
 
If you're an idiot it can make you significantly less safe....

keep in mind though, that if you bring a gun into your house, you are bringing in a risk factor not previously present.

like owning a house with stairs brings in a risk factor that wouldn't exist in a one story home.

If you're an idiot anything can be less safe. ;)
