It would be even less if they didnt count the suicides.
This too could be a factor?

Although the 1993 NEJM study purported to show that the homicide victims were killed with a gun ordinarily kept in the home, the fact is, as Kates and associates showed, 71.1 percent of the victims were killed by assailants who didn’t live in the victims’ household using guns presumably not kept in that home.

Woops?

When seconds matter, the police are only 20 minutes away.....stupid lib.
Fantasizing and fixating on a gun. LOL

In Japan, a saying goes,

It is difficult for a big man to use all of his brains.

That gun is no replacement for a well trained mind. How did you get yourself into that situation in the first place, big man? Big stupid man. Best to not be there, idiot. Or should I say, fearful pussy who sees threats where there are none. pussy

I guess all law enforcement and military personnel aren't real men or women according your latest analysis.
Since they are supposed to be protecting others your point is bullshit.

You must live in the suburbs in a gated community behind your private locked fences and gates. The only thing to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Stupid me thinking cops who protect you carry around night sticks and tasers and leave the firearms at home. Anyone who is properly trained using a firearm will stop a home invasion or rape dead in its tracks. Shut that bullshit down at the business end of a glock. Game over.

"Good guy with a gun" is such a stupid statement. People with this childish mindset played too much cops and robbers as kids.

The world is not that scary of a place. Sure bad shit happens, humans can be assholes. But it is so infrequent and unknowable in our country when you will be in a dangerous situation that the constant worry is not worth it.

“Don B. Kates and Gary Mauser. “Would Banning Firearms Reduce Murder and Suicide? A Review of International and Some Domestic Evidence” Harvard Journal of Law and Policy
The article appears in a publication, described as a "student law review for conservative and libertarian legal scholarship.” It does not appear to be a peer-reviewed journal, or one that is searching for truth as opposed to presenting a certain world view. The paper itself is not a scientific article, but a polemic, making the claim that gun availability does not affect homicide or suicide. It does this by ignoring most of the scientific literature, and by making too many incorrect and illogical claims. Here I will discuss just a few of the many problems “


Is this the study you are referring to? Seems it’s full of shit?

I’m thinking I should sell all of my guns so I’m not associated with what seems like a growing number of dumb people. I’m glad the majority of people in Canada can tell the difference between guns solely designed to kill people and hunting guns. The majority of gun owners here do not want handguns available because we know they are meant for nothing more than killing another human, same with assault weapons, even the non automatic ones.

Where I live is very rural. It takes an hour to get to town. Shasta is a very large county and about 70% rural.
I know a lady who is a 911 dispatcher.
She told me that, at certain times of the day, it could take her up to 45 minutes to get a cop to me, even code 3. From midnight till 5 am she has two cars on the road, with one deputy each car.
The Sheriff here gives permits to carry to citizens who can show they're properly trained and can pass the same DOJ backgroud check that his officers pass.

I have carried a pistol, legally and illegally, for most of my adult life.
Very few people know I have it in my pocket. I even forget I have it sometimes.
I consider it like a seat belt; you always put it on, and you pray you never need it. But if you do - nothing else is going to do the job.

I have only considered the use of it against a human one time - and me having it prevented a lot of pain for me and wifey.

If you truly worked in EMS, you know as well as I do that shit happens in nano seconds. The home defense sounds good in theory but in real life, that is NOT how shit goes down. Firing off a couple rounds to scare off wildlife or even trespassers is whole lot different then the reaction time and precision it would take to stop an actual violent attack.

Some of these comments are just down right idiotic.

I could legally sell every firearm in my home right now with nothing more than a buyers sig.
THAT is one of the problems/loopholes we need to address.

The other, is a lack of training...as can be seen in this very thread.

Another made-up story by hashbrain.

From what he said in the few posts I've seen from him, hashbrain's occupation is:

  • financial consultant-securities analyst who makes steely-eyed never-miss hedged trades and is sought after for his advice
  • grow operation worker who makes 50k per year and "just does what the boss says"
  • a rural trailer dweller who needs his shootin iron fer his pertecshun
Fucking troll. I'm looking forward to hearing hashbrain whine about being deprived of freeze peach from the next sock the chowder head creates.
