| About such studies, what they always fail to mention is that most times a gun is used to harm someone in a household the shooting is connected with criminal activity. The chance of a family member being harmed by a legally owned firearm absent a criminal act is extremely slight. But then the only way the anti gunners can gain support is to cherry pick their statistics. |

Funny how they can award a Nobel prize to an idiot!
He is in good company with obama, however. |

They come up with this bogus statistic by including suicide in their data and ignoring defensive firearm use where no one is killed.
I am 67 years old and we have always had guns in the house. Nobody was ever harmed. I'll take my chances as the risk of a negligent shooting is less than nil. |

| Liberals telling me these same tired old lies, are much more dangerous to my family than any firearm I may possess. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
