So your guns keep you safe?

[Daldolma]

Don't have time to read the whole study atm but did they account for the fact that a large number of urban shootings are perpetrated by gang members against other gang members -- most of whom are armed? Whether or not an average American is safer for owning a gun is hardly impacted by whether or not rival gangs are shooting each other at high rates.

We're not talking apples to apples if they're including gang or organized crime related violence. But the findings might be interesting if they managed to limit samples to home intrusions, for instance.
