As Second Amendment absolutists continue to complain that this report is “one-sided” because we are not publishing examples of the many, many (oh-so-many!) instances of people who use guns to defend themselves, we throw down a challenge. My assistant Jennifer and I publish this report based simply on a daily Google search and occasional articles that we come across in the course of our day. If you send us examples of self-defense that you find, we will print them. You have to use the same rules we use: stick to simple online searches, and only use incidents that take place that day. |

QUOTES
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]. |
