| Message | For every gun used irresponsibly, four hundred are used responsibly. Evidence points to the fact that gun ownership, or even percieved gun ownership, makes society safer. Are you more likely to rob a person you know will not be armed, or a person who may or may not be armed? While I understand some degree of regulations in terms of gun ownership, the current state of affairs is adequate. |

| Message | Yes, gun ownership drastically decreases house break-ins due to the fear caused by the possibility of its occupants being armed. |
