The fact of the matter is, the NRA is funding people like Lott to make male cattle dung claims and drive propaganda for the use of guns, when there is ridiculous amounts of evidence to the contrary that guns shouldn't be for personal use.
There is no bullshit in the fact that you are more likely to die while carrying a gun than not.
There is no bullshit in the fact that armed civilians have stopped exactly zero mass shootings in the last 33 years.
There is no bullshit in the fact that more people die from accidental gun deaths every year than saving yourself from a criminal.
But you can argue whatever you want, it's people like you that set the world back, because your freedom to make silly decisions is going to cost millions of live over the course of time, and I want you to hold that on your conscience.

Lott made up a second persona so that he could have someone agree with him. He was so insecure in his own writings that he had to make up a fictional person to agree with him. He's been ripped to shreds by numerous publications, made up facts, used facts wrong, been unable to produce documents on his facts, and is a laughing stock.
Come on Ohio, you're better than following this guy.

I honestly can't believe you're using John Lott as a reference for why guns are good. He's a know joke, and his "facts" are made up. It's a miracle the GOP even uses him, but it makes sense considering it's impossible to find anyone credible who would actually advocate for guns.

Reality is every other economically developed country with lower gun ownership rates than the United States.
I own a night club in the nations capital, we have metal detectors at the door. Not once has a gun ever been found on a body. No one in the building needs a gun for protection because no one has a gun.

Two guys throwing punches at each other is a hell of a lot better than two guys firing shots at each other. You're not going to hit a kid riding his bike 50 feet away with your fist. People are also a hell of a lot tougher when they have a weapon to inflict the pain for them.

"But there's gun control in Chicago and it has the highest amount of murders."
Let's place a cocaine addict in a circle, draw a line around him, and make sure there's no cocaine in that three foot circle around him, but on the outside of that circle, let's put so much cocaine that he can get it any time he wants and then wonder how he managed to get cocaine.
You want to stop gun violence, you don't stop it in one area, you stop it everywhere.

Because anyone who advocates for the right to bear arms doesn't care about the fact that people are dying for an archaic law. In 1787, the possibility of a British attack was high, and it made sense to carry a musket so that you could join in and fight for your independence. There is no army invading your country right now that you need a fucking AK-47 in your closet to protect yourself. The world changes, but the US has totally failed to adapt and it's created so many problems it's absurd. You're aren't even close to qualified to be President if you can't understand the problems that guns have created.
"It protects me."
Bullshit it does. 99% of the time you're attacked, you don't have a chance to use that gun.
"But I'm trained and an expert."
You know, because in a sample size of six million attacks, clearly it's the people not knowing how to use them right. You are 20 times more likely to die from a gun in the United States than other developed countries. You are twice likely to commit suicide as a gun owner. Black on black gun deaths happen more frequently in the United States than any other developed country. That's not a race problem, that's a gun problem.
