That's what I always laughed at about the gun grabbers' idea that guns somehow cause crime. All you need to do is go on one hunting trip to see prodigious numbers of heavily armed people, mostly grubby men, occupying every motel room and camping space in and around small towns in places like Colorado, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. By the gun grabbers' "logic" each of those little towns should be a bullet-pocked wasteland, occupied only by the dead and mortally wounded. Strangely, that's not the case now and never has been.

Or Switzerland.

A gun in practically every home, and guess what? Crime is about non-existent.

Try hunting public land in NJ. On opening day it's 1,000 acres, 500 heavily armed men, and not a single injury. (and if anything... probably a momentary drop in crime)

Personally, the place I feel safest outside my own home is down at the gun club.
