Well can he stop?

What assault rifle would Baby Jeebus use?

My friends around the world who aren't Americans,

The above is what it's like trying to talk about gun control with people here. Most of my experience isn't crazy gun nuts strutting around strapped because of some fucked up interpretation of the thought behind the 2A. It's people giving reasonable, at least superficially, arguments about why their guns aren't part of the problem. I say it's religious because it's all faith in the face of facts. Or fear in front of facts really.

Sounds like the issue could use more research. It's too bad there's a law prohibiting federal funds being used to study gun violence

I dont understand what you are questioning, the stat is about invaders with weapons. Having a weapon does not decrease risk in those instances.

The part you quoted is talking about how handguns may decrease risk in other non fatal home invasions. Maybe I'm reading what you're saying wrong, but the gun encounters are the ones being counted for comparison between those with or without handguns.
