Some of you would like to know some statistics, – so, here are some statistics for you to consider…
–In a survey by the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, it was found that over 500 rapes and over 1,000 murders are prevented EVERY DAY just by the would-be victim displaying their gun to the attacker (without ever firing it).
–In another survey by the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics 57% of convicted felons admitted they were more worried about confronting an armed civilian, than by being caught by the police.
–In London, 2 years AFTER civilian handgun ownership was BANNED, the crime rate ROSE 40%.
–Norway which has the HIGHEST rate of gun ownership in Europe, has the LOWEST murder rate.
–Luxembourg, which BANNED guns, has one of the HIGHEST murder rates.
–Russia, which BANNED guns, has a murder rate 4 times higher than the U.S. and 20 times higher than Norway.
My fellow Yidden, I realize that for many of you, for MOST of you, – guns are scary, and guns are foreign. Being a victim is MUCH MORE SCARY and can result, chalila, in serious harm, or r”l something even worse for you and/or your precious family members. I urge you to get weapons training. Education will remove your fears and pre-conceived notions, and will enable you to act with confidence to protect your family.
