I beg to differ. Guns kill tens of thousands of people every year. How many people do they save? A group of people here and there, 100, maybe 1,000 lives at most saved a year by Guns? No. Guns do not save lives that is the most asinine assumption somebody could make.
And that just iterates my point that if Guns were not used to kill in the first place (what they were created for) they would not need to be used for protection against them. The logic behind needing a gun to protect from another gun is as assbackwards and nonsensical as it gets.
