If someone wants you dead who has a gun, they are most likely already going to have the drop on you before you can draw yours. Guns are still highly more likely to be used in hurting or killing the user or someone the user knows. The wild west Dirty Harry romance of "self defence" is as fictional and delusional as God belief.
In reality gun deaths às a majority affect the user, and or someone the user knows. In the next 24 hours, 30 more people will die as a result of use of a gun, multiply that by 365.
We have a gun death epidemic in America, and only an asshole thinks do nothing is acceptable.
