I have a fire extinguisher I have never used, and like a gun it is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. I also have home owners insurance and car insurance I’ve never needed, but it is nice to know they are there.
Funny how the same people who insist everyone get a covid vax because you have about a one in a million chance of dying from covid have ice water in their veins when it comes to somebody else being a crime victim.
“Of course, the media — especially, but certainly not only, the likes of Fox — have played a large role in convincing an element of our society that they are in constant mortal danger.”
Danger from a Global Warming apocalypse? He mustn’t mean that. Covid? No, not that either. Russia, Russia, Russia? Nope.
Right Wing conspiracy theorists? Well, that would be the mortal danger that *he’s* selling.

Wouldn’t it be easier to get rid of 80 million Rats? Asking for a friend...
Even the extremely anti-gun CDC found more than 1,000,000 defensive gun uses per year.
I wonder if Russ Baker carries a spare tire in his car and if so, why.
Straw man. No need to read further.
I noticed the same thing.
First, Russ Baker claims that it is irrational to fear violent crime.

This commie bitch is invited to go door to door and try. He will not last past the 1st door.
The 2nd Amendment was,first and foremost,meant to allow “the people” to defend themselves against a tyrannical government.
Remember this name.
Maybe the author would like to volunteer to round up some of those guns.
I'll post the most delicious part from his Wikipedia entry:
He also declines to state where he lives or works because he does “sensitive investigative work” and doesn't want people showing up at his door.

Something tells me that he has guns, too - lots of guns.
They're just not for peasants like you or me.
Actually I would say the percentage approaches 100 and it doesn't matter if you own a gun or not. Unless you're like the Black Knight in Monty Python and when you have an arm hacked off you say it's just a flesh wound. King Arthur rightly summed him up as a looney.
