The simple truth of this statement defeats any arguments that that anti-gun people and non-believers are fond of putting forth. I also shows their hypocrisy for what it is. It's like my sig line at work;
"In the final seconds of your life, just before your killer is about to dispatch you to that great eternal darkness, what would you rather have in your hand? A cell phone or a gun?"
I have actually had a liberal anti-gunner call my house and ask my wife to send me over to her home with one of my guns because she thought she heard something in her basement. She was home alone and was quite scared. I don't think she ever kidded me after this about owning guns and keeping one at the ready. In fact, she asked me to give her young son some training, which I did. He's now an officer and a gentleman in the Navy.
