I have lived in developed and developing countries and have never felt that my family or property were at risk. The real question is why you think they are when we live in the safest time in human history.

That’s great! This whole civilization thing is working pretty well.

Just because you haven’t personally encountered violence, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

Yes exactly I'm trying to continue living in a world without violence, the way to do that is to reduce easy access to guns.

Yes I'm sure the 20th century would have been much more peaceful with guns in everyone's hand. You sir have solved all political problems , just give everyone guns !
