Safety is one of the most considered aspects of day to day living. It is always better to be safe than sorry. In ensuring that you are safe, it is recommended that you should learn how to use any kind of an item for the purpose of self defense. There has been a notion that you need to learn martial arts in order to enhance your self-defense techniques. |

| Hey Doc's, how many of your patients die each year due to errors, neglect etc. Quite a few. So can it on guns. |

Again the meme that a gun in the house is more of a danger than a help. Yet between 500,000 and 1,000,000 people use guns to defend themselves each year.
Years ago a study "proved" a gun in the home was 43 times more likely to kill or injure a home owner or family member than be used on a intruder. The methodology used to obtain this was dishonest in the extreme and required the inclusion of gang houses, drug runners homes, meth labs, suicides, and other avoidable criminal activities.
That lie is still circulating, like a bad penny.

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
