A gun in the home triples the risk of homicide in the home. FBI crime statistics say prove that privately-owned firearms are used to thwart violent crimes two and one-half million times per year, most of the time without a shot being fired.
QUICK GUN FACTS
I guess two and one-half million more rapes, murders and robberies per year would be preferable.

"PREFERABLE?" YES ACTUALLY!
Infinitely preferable to the serfs getting above their station!
And it’s not just the Post that thinks that way either, unfortunately.
One wonders who they will endorse for president come the fall.
A like minded “favorite son” of Gotham perhaps?
