:I welcome an open-minded discussion about the illogical claim that guns, which are overwhelmingly defensive, somehow increase crime.  So far, you haven't shown an interest in open-minded discussion.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 12:08, 5 July 2009 (EDT)

::Mr. Schlafly, I have long sided with the pro-gun agenda, however, in trying to be open minded, I conducted research into the defensive use of guns. According to [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11144624 this] report, "Guns are used to threaten and intimidate far more often than they are used in self defense." I think we both know that this is simply not true, but I was hoping you could provide some insights as to the nature of this deceit. Obviously, this reeks of liberal bias, as they baselessly attempt to portray lawful defensive use as illegal. I think this is representative of the deceit liberals proffer in fallacious attempts to slander gun ownership. [[User:JennaK|JennaK]] 12:23, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
