    I think you’re asking the wrong questions.

    You should be asking if society is safer if people have guns than if they don’t. Of course, answering this isn’t so simple because which society matters.

        Every developed nation with strict gun control is safer.

        Lots of rural America is still very underdeveloped. The only protection these people have from threats is the protection they can provide themselves.

        This is what I mean by ‘which society matters.’ There are many differences between nations than just their gun laws.

          I think you’re confusing “rural America” with a movie called “Mad Max”.

          Which would have been safer without guns.

          In any case, it sounds like what you mean to say is “the lawless hellscapes of the USA need to be civilized by an accountable organisation of some kind”, not “guns fix everything, hyuck”.

      Society is never safer with guns, and the more society you have the fewer guns you need.

      If you live in barbarism, sure, you might need a gun, but barbarism is antithetical to a healthy society.
