You, dksuddeth, are playing the odds with your life every day. Every time you eat spinach, you seriously risk getting e. coli. Every time you get in your car or onto any kind of transportation, you're seriously risking getting in a fatal accident (even with seat belts and airbags). Every time you go to a fair, you run a 1 in 300,000,000 chance of being in an accident. Every time you walk under a coconut tree, you run a 1 in 250,000,000 chance of being struck by a coconut (they kill 150 each year, which means that 5 times the people murdered in San Jose every year are killed by coconuts). A gun won't protect you from, delicious death from above. Yes, you're playing roulette with your life. We all are.

and all that taken in to account, I can arm myself with tools that can HELP, notice I say help and not guarantee, my odds of surviving some encounters than if I didn't have said tools.
