    This "seldom" happens in areas with lax gun laws, Arizona was a good example and they had a field day with it. Take law abiding citizens ability to protect themselves and they become victims

    - Average odds of hitting it big in a lottery - approx 1 in 10,000,000 (being generous to average for the non-"Mega" lotteries out there)

    - Chance of being stuck by lightning: 1 in 587,000

    - Chances of fatally slipping in the tub/shower: 1 in 33,000

    - Odds of being murdered: 1 in 19,000

    - Likelihood of suffering an injury due to a house fire: 1 in 89

    - Odds of being a victim of a violent crime (another USA specialty): 1 in 20.1



    Some people choose to play the odds one way, some prefer a different way...

    When there's lightning storms around, it's not likely I'll hang around outside for long despite the vanishingly small chance I'll be struck.

    It's pretty unlikely I'll ever slip in the shower and die, but I purchased a bath mat anyway.

    Most likely my house won't burn down or get destroyed by a tornado, yet I pay for insurance just in case.

    There at things each of us do to protect ourselves from the most unlikely of things. For me and my family, having and carrying a gun is another form of insurance. And like my home or auto insurance, I'll be thrilled if I make it to the end of my life never having to use it.

    I would have a gun in my truck if my high school didn't care. They expelled a kid for a pocket knife and brass knuckles being in his chevy.

    Whether you carry or not why doesn't a group of dudes ever rush a lone shooter? Always blows my mind that people would just line up . . .
