Odds don’t mean shit when you win the die in a fireball lottery. Odds are zero if you don’t play.
wouldn’t that achieve the opposite?
edit: ah, that’s the joke. woosh.
Would there be more or less mass shootings if literally every adult had a gun
Most people would probably do more harm than good trying to stop a mass shooting with their own gun.
Right. People with a gun in the house are more likely to be injured or killed by a gun, not less.
Not to mention, most people aren’t going to train enough to be effective. Most people don’t respect deadly objects in their possession enough to learn how to use them safely and effectively. That’s made obvious any time you watch people drive.
And you have to worry about the cops shooting the good Samaritan when the show up. Possibly by accident even.
Just to point out, but the last time we had a scandal about a plane that kills people, it’s safety record was about the same as riding a motorcycle in city transit (AKA, one of the most dangerous things people actually do).
Just because the average is very low, it doesn’t mean whatever problem people are pointing isn’t an issue.
