Still getting used to Lemmy! I’m not getting notifications about when I’m being responded to. I dunno.
The “good guy with a gun” thing is absolutely hard to swallow, I can agree with that. But you must concede that defensive gun usage has been massively underreported and so statistically looks as if a gun isn’t helpful.
It’s also a weird argument to say that I have a 1/100 chance of being rescued by a guy with gun Vs being killed.
So the answer to defending yourself or others from the guy with the knife is what? Wait for someone else, like Uvalde? Be a meat shield? Even if it’s 1 out of 100, I would rather not wait to be hurt.
