You seem to have concocted quite the image of me their, this is all just speculation and fantasy on your behalf. I have been attacked by multiple attackers on several occasions, I have won some and I have lost some. I have also paid a LEGAL price for this. The issue isn't about how big and tough you are, but if you are willing to step up to the plate. Nobody is claiming to be some ultimate ALPHA warrior who is unbeatable, it is all about being prepared to fight for what you believe in, regardless of how strong the opposition is or the fact you may LOSE.
The claim that GUN OWNERS live in FEAR is their own, it doesn't come from me, one of their arguments is that they are afraid of Intruders and attackers and also their Government turning on them. By their own admission they are feraful. I have already stated that owning a gun fro sport shooting or hunting or law enforcement or military defence is an acceptable use of a gun. Owning one because you are a scared paranoid freak isn't.
As for the Pitbull attack, their were two pitbulls and I suffered a severed Achilles tendon and a mauled left arm. I don't believe a gun would have prevented these injuries, it happened pretty quickly, I actually didn't see the dogs until the last few seconds and the owner had the dogs under control pretty quickly. I have asked myself several times if I think a gun would have helped in that situation, and they may well have, but it also opens a greater pandoras box, their was a recent case of two policemen who were attacked by a pitbull, and one of the officers fired at the Pitbull, but due to the Pitbulls fast and sudden movements, the policeman missed and actually shot his partner and killed him. My advocacy work is because, it isn't just me that was attacked by Pitbulls, these attacks are common place and regularly it is children being killed or suffering absolutely horrendous injuries. And yes, I think fighting breeds of dog have no place in society. My Brain and brawn didn't fail me, My Brain and brawn kept me alive, that's what it is for. It was due to someone else's lack of a brain that put me in that situation.
Gun Nutters like to think that they can somehow protect themselves at all times, this is just simply not true. It is this fear of suffering or being dominated that sees them weapon up. It is better to live a good life and fight the battles that come along and accept that you can't win them all. Their will be times when the forces against us are simply stronger. And I don't believe Guns are a great equaliser, if two people in a conflict both have guns, other factors now come into play regarding who will now win the outcome. All Gun ownership does is up the ante, forcing the enemy too find other ways to dominate you, it can turn simple conflict into a deadly game, and it can also turn the mildest person into a raving lunatic.

Of course I concocted quite the image of you , the exact same way you do of gun owners
I can only go by what you type and by doing that you come across as whiny with an massive inferiority complex , your fear of inanimate objects leads one to believe you're very scared to be near one , hold one , touch one out of fear of what you might do with one
You've been attacked on several occasions? wow sound like you live in a really dangerous place lol or maybe you're inferiority complex is leading you into fights. Sounds like AU is more violent than the U.S. if that's the case because I have never been attacked on several occasions and I grew up in some shady ass places. Then again I tend to avoid trouble and have nothing to prove that's the sign of a man
Attacked multiple times and attacked by multiple pitbulls boy you seem to find trouble , I wonder why?

It comes from you projecting onto others as well as right wing nutt cases. I don't obsess over someone attacking me or doing a home invasion but I'm mindful these things do happen and I have a responsibility to protect my family , guns are part of that plan , in their cases it's a matter of ' Better to have and not need than to need and not have. ' it took the police TWENTY-FUCKING-MINUTES since the first call to respond to Sandy Hook , when police are this far away you have a responsibility to be your own first responder in the rare event something like this happens.
The shooter could have brought a Revolution Era musket and still would have time to kill all these kids.
And the people screaming about the oppressive Government are going to take their guns , it's not paranoia if it's true , the law abiding citizens are constantly being punished for the acts of criminals , you have Sen Diane Feinstein of California who is introducing a new version of the failed ' assault weapons ban ' on camera saying she would love to confiscate ALL firearms.
And what you think about what people should or shouldn't own from the other side of the planet is inconsequential , what worked ( or didn't ) for your country doesn't matter. Like I said , guns are like abortions , don't want one don't get one , but fuck off trying to tell law abiding tax paying citizens they can't because you don't see a need. Especially not when they are a constitutional right

A gun might not have saved you from injury but it sure as fuck would have stopped them dogs from ever hurting anyone again. And the policemen who shot his partner because he missed , I'm calling bullshit on that story unless you provide a link to a credible news agency.

Where do you come up with this stuff? Anyone who has a gun for protection knows better than most that they are not the end-all-be-all of protection but it's a fuck of a lot better than the alternative which is nothing. There are stories of people being shot 17 times and still living. And guns are a fantastic deterrent and a great equalizer and most of the time work without ever having to pull the trigger , and it's not some lets bang it out fisticuffs and the attack ends when the aggressor decides you took your beating like a man , it's people intend on imposing their will on you and doing egregious bodily harm these people need to be stopped at all costs and if that means their live then so be it.
99% of gun owners are responsible human beings , in order to get a license to carry firearms you have to have led an exemplary life and not have been in trouble with the law what so ever , most states you have to go for a safety course which is usually 8 hours , there are always bad apples but the vast majority are good honest people , who are sick & tired of lumped in with bad people
Your aversion to guns , especially when you admitted you don't care about the victims is telling , either you're trolling or serious in either case you still lose.
