Aside, from the military, police, hunters and sport shooters, you are correct. Exactly the situation up here.

>Most people would not feel comfortable requiring another agency to defend them, such as the police. A bad guy shows up with a gun, most people would desire to be able to defend themselves there on the spot. And most bad guys would think twice before attacking someone knowing that any of the people around them could be carrying a firearm. This statistic has been proven in countless locations which have unrestricted concealed carry policies.

Those people don't seem to realise that the gun in the house statistically has been proven to be way more of a threat to the owners (40x) than it is to any intruder. Question is whether you hate your family that much?

>In Australia, where they outlawed not only handguns but also most rifles, there are several statistics which demonstrate that gun-related injuries and deaths have decreased. But at the same time, new crimes began appearing on the scene because the would-be assailants knew that they would not encounter firearm-based resistance when breaking-and-entering into a residence even when the occupants are home.

I know several of those statements circulating the internet. The problem is that it is a Hoax. Simple not true.

The problem is that people actually selectively believe those statistics on the internet out of almost religious believes.

>Most people would prefer to be able to defend themselves Johnny on the spot, rather than being at the mercy of the hoped-for good behavior of other people in the world, or in waiting for a police man to arrive because unless he/she happened to be there already ... it would be too late.

People without a brain if you ask me. I love my family too much to own a gun.


>In terms of raw human being safety ... gun bans in any form do not make sense. If everybody had the opportunity to freely have a concealed weapon, nobody would know who actually did have a gun unless it was visible, and before things escalated too violence, the dozen or so bystanders who pulled out their weapons and trained it on the would-be-bad-guy have just foiled the crime. When no guns are present, the would-be-bad-guy (who likely has a gun) is a threat to everybody, and in danger from almost nobody.

That is a lot of humbug. I really don't know why people believe in such nonsense.

>Gun laws don't work the way people hope they will. They just make regular citizens who desire to defend themselves less able to defend themselves.

I guess you have never been out of the US and went to any other country where crime rates and gun ownership is at a much lower level.
