Every year, there are about two million defensive uses of guns. This obsession saves those people.
What are those two million people defending themselves from, I wonder?

Themselves mostly.

Two-thirds of gun-related deaths are suicides. This obsession enables people who are hurting and struggling to end their lives, and in some cases, the lives of many people around them first.
Sure…
There’s way more firearm accidents and suicides than incidents where guns actually helped. They make everyone, especially gun owners, less safe. If safety is the primary concern, the less guns the better.
Defensive use of guns, like defending yourself from a kid you decided to pull over because he had skittles!
