This is a lie.you're more likely to have a gun taken from you than use it to defend your family.
This is also a lie.and you're certainly statistically more likely to shoot a family member or friend or have one of them shoot themselves or you.
my statements are true. but please go with the NRA party line.
The “Good Guy With a Gun” Is a Myth
my problem is not with guns, per se. it's with people who shouldn't have guns getting them
The argument you are using in bunk.
No CCW holder is obligated in anyway to draw his weapon to stop a criminal.
Quite frankly unless my or my wife's life is in jeopardy I will not draw my weapon and that is how it should be.
IMO if you're getting mugged or assaulted and you have chosen not to arm yourself and to let the police protect you then if my or my wife's life is not in danger I will call the cops for you and hope you don't get killed or permanently maimed before they show up.
See that's me respecting your choice. All you have to do is respect mine
Wow. Some of that is right in every way. Some of it is acceptable if not unequivocally virtuous. Some of it is ethically tolerable more so than acceptable. Some of it is ineffably turpitudinous morally. I don't often see such a spectrum of expressions from one person in so few words. Indeed, I can't honestly say I've seen that before.
I see nothing turpitudinous about my stance.
I have no moral, legal or ethical obligation to come to anyone's defense.
I have absolutely no right to tell other people what to do which also means I respect their personal choices.
If a person chooses to go unarmed then he is choosing to either rely on his martial arts skills or the police to come to his aid if his safety or life is ever threatened by a criminal.
If that person saw me getting assaulted all they could do is call the cops so why should I do more for them they they are willing to do for themselves or anyone else?
