I think clara meant it's all about safety as in if you own a gun, you have an important obligation to care for it safely, not necessarily that owning a gun always leads to safety. I absolutely agree with you that having a gun you plan to use for self-defense is more likely to make things worse than it is to keep you safe, and a lot of statistics back that up. You're more likely to hurt yourself or an innocent person in an accident than you are to fend off a home invader, by a pretty massive margin.
Statistics like Washington dc's murder rate doubling after a hand gun ban?
