Why gun ownership deters crime

Want PROOF that gun ownership deters crime? Consider this thought experiment: Let’s pretend you’re a burglar looking to break into a home. In neighborhood number one, there’s a big sign that says “This Street Is Protected by Neighborhood Watch.” And in neighborhood number two, there’s an equally large sign that says “This Street Is Protected by the Neighborhood Gun Club. Homeowners Assume No Liability for Bullet-Riddled Burglars.”

So which street would you target for attempted burglary?

Goddamn right you would.
