Now if I find myself in a confrontational situation I don't have to worry the other guy might have a gun. On the other hand if he decides to attack me there is no easy option he has to take the risk I will damage him severely. An unarmed society is less risky than an armed one at least some wee ba'heid will find it difficult to get his hands on a gun to boost his insignificant sense of self.

Oh, yes, and how many times have we heard THIS?? Ladies and gentlemen, your typical anti-gun war cry, as seen above^^^^^^
Good grief, I am sick and damn well tired of being considered a "nutter" and paranoid, and having a low self-esteem. Because.....NONE OF THESE THINGS ARE TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
