    I’m a gun owner. I just understand how statistics work, and that you or a household member areway way way more likely to negligently shoot yourself or a family member than to prevent a home invasion.

      Did I say that statistic was wrong? If so, I apologize. I assumed you were just a troll. My big point was, lock the guns up in a safe and it is less likely.

        Except there’s no conclusive data that gun safes reduce the likelihood of a gun death in the household.

            There’s conclusive data that a gun in the household significantly increases the chance of gun death of all members of the household. That’s the whole goddamn discussion man.

              There are also statistics of dying in a car crash everyday when you drive. There are chances of everything.
