Nonsense.
1,000,000+ people use guns in legal self defense each year (I know some estimates are a lot higher) and this is well established by FBI studies as well as Gary Kleck's, and the Lott/Mustard study.
Breonna Taylor was shot as the result of a tragic police screw-up.
Using one tragic incident to argue against 2A rights flies in the face of facts, ignores larger truths, and is one ugly tactic amongst many employed by antigun statists. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
