“Even if gun-control laws could actually succeed in keeping firearms from the hands of criminals – a goal they are notoriously ineffective at accomplishing – the reduction to the offensive ability of predators is far less than the loss of defensive capability among the law-abiding. People who devote themselves to a life of crime don’t have much trouble becoming far more physically dangerous than the folks they like to victimize. Ordinary people don’t have the experience or aptitude for violence that criminals usually bring to the table. Also, the victim is often outnumbered during criminal encounters.”
