    It you own a gun and have a kid your kid is way more likely to shoot itself or you than a home invader trying to murder you. Like way more.

    Just doubling and tripling down on not understanding how statistics work.

    I'm a gun owner. I just understand how statistics work, and that you or a household member areway way way more likely to negligently shoot yourself or a family member than to prevent a home invasion.

    Except there's no conclusive data that gun safes reduce the likelihood of a gun death in the household.

    Do you just live in constant fear of statistically unlikely occurrences? Are you a conservative by chance?
