Re: Robbery Prevention / Tips (YEAH RIGHT)

Some commentary from one of the most reputable sources on the subject:
“Men who behave passively are 1.4 times more likely to end up seriously injured than men who have a gun. For women, passive behavior is even more dangerous, making them 2.5 times more likely to wind up seriously injured than if they resist with a gun.� p.79
“Indeed, locking up guns reduces safety and, on net, results in a loss of lives.� p.82
“Not only does the passage of a right-to-carry law have a substantial, statistically significant impact on multiple victim public shootings, but it is the only gun law that appears to have any real impact [in decreasing outcomes of multiple victim shootings].� p.136
