So you're just making shit upBecause they are non-events. We don't know how many times someone ran away because someone waived his penis compensator at them. And we don't know how many battered housewives live in terror that their husbands will use that gun to hunt them and the children down if they try to leave. Because these numbers are largely uncountable.
We do have very countable numbers in how many people DIE from gunshot wounds.
We know that only 200 people are killed by guns fired by civilians that are classified as justified. (Ironically, many of them not home invaders, but domestic abusers.)
We know that 1000 people are shot by the police, but I doubt our police would be so trigger happy if they weren't dealing with a heavily armed public. British cops only shoot 5 people a year on average. In Japan, it's considered a bit of a scandal when the police even take their guns out of their holsters.
We know that we have 19,000 gun homicides and 23,000 gun suicides and 800 gun accidents every year...
We have so many mass shootings you have to rack up an impressive body count to even get the national news to notice.
As usual.
And it has been repeatedly that not all DGUs result in the death f the piece of shit criminal so the fact that there are only 200 DGU deaths annually proves the restraint of the average law abiding gun owner.
