81. In the same sense that nukes make us safer.

If they didn't exist in the hands of people who we percieve as dangerous, there would be no reason to have them. I have wack-job people in my neighborhood who have guns, so I have a gun. If they didn't have them, I wouldn't need one. If they did not exist, we would all be safer.

I always hear about people saying that if there were no guns, home invasions, etc would increase. I cry BS. Places where there are no (or limited) guns have a lower incidence of that shit.
