    There was a study published from data from the last like… 10 years, I believe, that show that people with guns are more likely to run away, and people WITHOUT guns, are more likely to jump in and try to stop the shooter.

    So ya. These good guys with guns are just pussies that never actually use them for good.

        Ya. I live in Canada, and I’ve never felt the need to own a gun. We have a TON of hunting guns here, but I think the fact we don’t allow open carry, changes the thought process of gun owners here, and we don’t see them as weapons to point at other people. They are more so seen as a tool for a hobby, like a fishing rod is used for fishing.

        And honestly, if you avoid Toronto, violence in general is really low. Toronto is just… special.

          Toronto isn’t even in the top ten most dangerous…

      That might be because people who own guns have had training in how not to get killed.

      I’m not sure that saying gun owners should be quicker to shoot people is the right direction.
