Most stolen guns are handguns
Victims report to the Victim Survey that in 53% of
the thefts of guns, handguns were stolen. The
FBI's stolen gun file's 2 million reports include
information on--
1.26 million handguns (almost 60%)
470,000 rifles (22%)
356,000 shotguns (17%).
Like I keep saying .... they make the owner a taget.
Saying it's one thing. Proving it's another. You ever gonna prove it?
In those ~2,000,000 cases, how many times did
the gun get used in self-defense?
Looks like about none.
Based on............?
How many thefts would NOT have happened,
including all associated injuries & deaths, had they
NOT had thse guns to steal?
Based on...........?
OTOH We now have probably ~2,000,000 more
people armed to protect themselves with guns,
do we not?
Dunno. You don't seem to know much of anything, do you? :/
In addition to comprehension problems you have other
problems too?
How much is 1+1? Just testing.
