Yet lots of people are afraid to ride a bike, and almost none are afraid

Similar. The murderous Second Amendment gun nuts could also say the vast majority of gun deaths in the USA are from suicide. NOT from the murderous Chicago gangsters murdering the good, saintly caucasians on their way to church every day. There are twice, double, 200% as many people killed by guns from suicide than murdered by guns. But we must have guns to protect ourselves from the murderous thugs, despite there is twice, double, 200% as much chance that you, your wife, child will put the gun in their mouth and blow their head off.


uh, crime mostly stays within the neighborhood and generally
does not cross ethnic lines (although naturally outliers
sell newspapers)

in re Chicago specifically
https://heyjackass.com/

Meanwhile 100 million+ law abiding armed citizens passed yet
another day uneventfully.

Anyone ever charged with felon in possession or other crimes
of illegal firearms in Chicago? Almost never, despite
strict, perhaps unconstitutional, barriers against the law
abiding citizens defending themselves.

(you're on your own with suicide I have no opinion and just
don't care)

Oh by the way Chicago had roughly as meany deaths by Heroin
as gunshots in 2016 and 2017. Wanna ban Heroin? Oh, right
we're working on that- for the past 100 years or so. Stay tuned.
