Clearly her .38 revolver was insufficient. If she'd had an AR-15 the taxpayers wouldn't have to pay for that guy's meals in prison, amiright?
Very true. Good point.

How many people die in accidental or violent shootings compared to the number of people who use a gun in self defense?All I meant by the post was that firearms are used in self defence sometimes. Some people, irrational or not, fear more restrictions will lead to outright confiscation in the future.

The estimates for gun use in self defense vary from 100,000 to 2,000,000 per year. Probably somewhere in the middle. Most of the time, the gun is not fired. Most criminals do not persist when faced with credible resistance. Of course, most of the posters on this board do not need firearms. They have the type of rippling muscles and fierce personnas that criminals fear. And they have reason to worry sbout shooting themselves.
Solid use of a gun for home defense.
