n 2021 in the United States, seven people were murdered by their employer. However, 1,953 people were killed by an acquaintance. In 2021, far more people were killed by people they knew than by strangers.
Guns for defense is mainly a good wish, stats are showing that.
Whenever a gun is used for defense, about 50 people are injured or killed by guns, not to mention the even larger number of crimes committed with guns without anybody getting hurt.
The fact is, guns are used by criminals at least 100 times more often then they are used for defense.

Certainly there are few cases in which guns are used to successfully protect the good guys. However, data says that whenever a gun is used for defense, about 50 people are injured or killed by criminals with gun, not to mention the even much higher number of crimes committed with guns but with nobody hurt. So it is pretty accurate to say that whenever a gun is used for defense, at least 100 guns have been used to commit crimes. How many of the 100+ victims are gun owners? How come they don't use their guns for defense? Especially those killed, about 16, how many of them are gun owners? At least four or five, right? Why could they rather become 死鬼s than using their guns to defend?
