Studies show that 500,000 to 1,000,000 citizens use firearms in self defense each year. Do these count as "stopping more crime" or are the numbers only subsumed into the general stats?
The utility of privately owned firearms is self defense.
There are many ways of stopping crimes, ways that don't even include private guns, so it becomes tedious and unnecessary to conflate the issues.
"To Keep and Bear Arms" is a Constitutionally protected right.
Numbers games are essentially irrelevant. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks. — Thomas Jefferson, Encyclopedia of T. Jefferson, 318, Foley, Ed., reissued 1967. |
