This story should be making headlines on conservative news sites everywhere. Even lefties need to see these statistics. People HAVE to be prepared to take personal responsibility their own safety as well as the people in their lives. Having a police force creates a moral hazard where folks purport to abdicate their personal responsibility for safety to the state. The state cannot stop bad things from happening, it won't even slow the criminals down. However, an armed populace who can take violent situations into their own hands will have a chilling effect on any would-be attacker. We're all adults here & we don't need 'em (the state)!!! Get these stats out there far & wide. Thanks, @careywedler for putting these numbers out there.

LoL "lefties"
These little boxes the establishment put's people in is only a distraction from the real issues that matter. None of the left vs right arguments matter very much. Their purpose is to divide the population and conquer it.
hmmmmm no. A lot of these mass murderers are people that snap and kill themselves at the end. What are you talking about.
It's sad that the "right" controls the government right now and the NRA dumps millions into the gun lobby yet they're still worried about protecting gun rights. Maybe if politicians weren't so incompetent these days they'd get something done.
Politicians aren't just incompetent, they're illegitimate. Anyway, I was talking in reference to the article which was more about small personal attacks in Europe, not large mass shootings. And there are people who place themselves in "left or right" boxes. I, for one, went so far to the right that I fell off the scale completely into Voluntarism. I do very much recognize the divide & conquer tactics to keep people fighting for the ring of power so their team can "do the right thing" with it. The ring needs to be destroyed. I do not need the N.R.A. to protect my rights, they come from GOD so I trust HIM to protect them. Of course, HE will expect me to fight but, HE will give righteousness & liberty the victory. Just like I alluded to in my comment, without the moral hazard created by the state, most of us would take our personal responsibility for self-protection more serious & therefore better prepared to meet an attack with a superior force in order to protect themselves, their families & communities. These would not be a people ripe for targeting by bad people but, a terrifying force for any would-be attacker. You never know who is better armed than you or better trained than you, if you're looking to do harm to one of them. Get rid of the "government" & make the populace safer, simple.
hi. If I were gay, could I go to heaven ? and in your own belief system, shouldnt god be making the 'populace safer'? finally, if heaven is so wonderful, why are you so scared of going ?
You're going to hell. There is no God. Death is the end.
Oops, did I just contradict myself? Remind you of anything?
That's ironic. It made me chuckle a bit. Thanks for the laugh.
Really? Ok, luckily for everyone, especially me, I'm not the one who judges whether anyone goes to hell or not. I've proven to be a very poor judge & our FATHER doesn't need any help in that area. GOD does keep people who operate within the parameters of HIS WORD protected. HE hates lazy people so HE does expect us to work for it, or in the case of safety fight for it. Lastly, I ain't scared of anything except letting HIM down. I want as much time here as I can get so I can be doing HIS work & helping as many of our brothers & sisters as I can. Thanks for stopping by & for the comment. I hope this helps answer your questions.
