    .000625%(napkin math) of gun owners experience an accidental gun discharge each year.

    It just doesn’t happen that often without gross negligence 🤷‍♂️.

      Fair enough, but i guess yeah im scared of guns and i dont like having the right to carry one. Because any of the other 400 million Americans have the same right and they might be grossly negligent and then i end up the victim of someone’s dog accidentally discharging a shotgun from the car in the lane next to me.

      I like shooting guns i go a few times a year to the shooting range, it’s always a good day and i feel good about knowing im ready to use one. I still just don’t need one in my home and I don’t think my neighbors need to be walking around with them either.
