I'm Pro Gun: Change my Mind

"In any such conflict, It has almost always been the case that at least as large a percentage of the population has been in favor of the tyrants as against. " So, In North Korea the half the population are in favor of Kim Jong Un? And in Germany, People were in favor of the holocaust? "You are ensuring that THEY will also be armed, And in a better position to put down your posited fight against the tyrants. " You have a much better chance with guns, Mainly AR-15's and AK47's. America fought against a tyrannical government in 1776, Israel 1948, Russia 1989, France 1793, And many more. "Guns have not proven to be an effective method of protection- they are by nature offensive. " False. There are over 2. 5 million defensive gun uses pear year, According to the cdc. There are 12, 000 gun homicides per year. As stated by a Kleck-Gertz study, 15. 7% of people who were involved in a DGU (Defensive Gun Use) said they almost certainly saved theirs or someone else"s life. In addition to that, Another 14. 6% said they probably saved a life. This means 800, 000 lives are saved by guns. Murder rates show that about 73% of murders are with guns, And 27& other weapons. If we take those rates and plug them in for the weapon used by the offender in DGU's, Over 200, 000 lives are saved even if the bad guy didn't have a gun! This majorly outnumbers gun murders. "The idea that, Faced with an armed intruder who is ready to shoot, You will get you gun, Ensure it is loaded and then overpower the intruder, When all he will have to do is aim and shoot shows it's limitations. " This is what concealed-carry is for in public, And people are trained very well to react to situations. They also commit crimes 14% less than police! That is how law-abiding and safe they are. You would hear somebody try to break in. They wouldn't know where you are, Either. You have plenty of time to get a gun if you hear somebody break in, Especially if it is near you or you have it on your body. "It is just a statistical fact that guns are much more likely to be used to kill yourself or a member of you family than an intruder- ACCIDENTAL deaths by gunshot are more prevalent than defensive, In-home shootings. " Suicide is not an excuse to take away my basic right to own a firearm. There is a plethora of things you can do to commit suicide, Besides. There are 505 instances of accidental deaths. People need to earn how to be responsible gun owners, Teach kids about gun safety, And make sure they don't have access to a gun. Why are you making this comparison? Only 30, 000 of intruders into homes have a gun, And it is most likely that households did not have a gun. How about comparing all self-defense uses, Not just homes? "The fact that you have encouraged a gun society now means the chance of an intruder being armed are much higher, And the chance of being shot by police are MANY times higher than in countries with strict gun control. " Probably because criminals are using guns improperly. If guns are banned, People will get illegal guns, Or use other weapons such as knives, But people will be defenseless. What if there is a school shooter? Who do you rely on to protect you? Gun bans have proven not to be effective decreasing murder rates in England, Australia, And even cities in America(https://crimeresearch.
