      Oh yeah, Canadian and European women are just casually murdered and raped all the time cause they’re not strapped. That’s so totally a thing that happens and we all hear about in the news day after day!

          1 in 6 women is raped in their lifetime

          Is that stat higher in Canada / Europe or the US?

          And many of them could have been prevented if they had a firearm.

          My sensibilities are more important than yours.

          Yes you’ve made it very clear that you value your own paranoia over the statistical safety of everyone.

              Is that star higher for Europe or the US?

              It’s higher even than that everywhere because the number of reported rapes is lower than what the numbers show.

              Yeah, you didn’t answer the question. European and Canadian women do not get raped at a higher rate than American women, despite not being strapped up like a commando.

              And guess what? They suffer lower rates of spousal killing, and their children do not die from gun violence at any statistically meaningful rate.

              But let’s say what you want to believe is right – that rape is extremely rare, too rare to justify gun ownership or self-defense in general.

              Never said rape was rare, just pointed out that making guns easy for every psychopath to gets their hands on doesn’t make it less rare. Increasing gun ownership increases the rate of rapists who own guns as well, you, evil evil gun wielding rapist supporter 🙄

              Congratulations on living in the only country in the world where dozens of children are regularly gunned to death at school. All your decisions are going great.

      You’re more likely to be killed by a mosquito than raped, and men are far more likely to be murdered than you. You might want to reevaluate your threat assessment.
