I think Willravel did a better job in this debate. He brought a stronger logical and statistical argument to the table about guns and self defense. After reading the whole debate I think Will's argument is simply more convincing.

I'm pro-gun and will probably be purchasing a gun for home safety down the line. I haven't yet because my wife is anti-gun and I haven't convinced her yet. I think a gun should be in my home because of one of tele's debating points: the chance of finding yourself in a killer's path is very low, but the stakes are too high to not be prepared.

It was really hard to choose which debate was better. I had to go back over the thread a couple times honestly.
