I was called an "ammophobe" in a discussion with some of the gun apologists. I do admit I am very scared of ammo - especially if it is heading towards me at 4,000 ft/sec.

Another poster said that if a 'defensive gun usage' saves just one life for every 9,000 gun-related 'criminal homicides,' it would be worth it.
I really don't understand why we have this RKBA forum on a Democratic site. We wouldn't tolerate a forum to promote Trump; why a vehicle for the NRA to post their propaganda?
