A 1994 survey by the National Opinion Research Center notes that 41 percent of American households contain one or more guns. If people have guns in their home to feel safe, you might ask why they don't worry about being in the same house as a gun. Some fights are limited to harsh words, some fights turn to the exchange of blows or a beating while someone cowers and sobs. Some fights come down to a hole the size of a pen barrel, or maybe a candle. Empty space at one end and the possibility of an equation at the other.
Force equals mass times velocity.
But only if the trigger gets pulled. Looking at that hole, waiting, wondering. Some fights end very fast, and forever. He's out late at night with a valuable cargo. The report gives no indication of whether the weapon is registered or not.
