Yeah, maybe in my family.
If I had to worry about my significant other shooting me, I'd probably buy another gunIf you have to worry about your significant other shooting you, it may be time to kick out the significant other, rather than get rid of the guns.
Remove sucides and you get 2.4 accidental or criminal deaths by firearm per 1 self defense justifiable homicide. Also, no adjustment was made for those charged and found not-guilty by reason of self defense, they got counted as criminal deaths, same with those overturned on appeal. Again, spin back to College Park. 1 criminal was killed in a justifiable homicide. However, if no gun would have been present, you'd have had 10 students killed in 'accidental or criminal death' that's a 10:1 ratio presented in the same way as Kellerman's 2.4:1 ratio (adjusted for sucide)...you just aren't going to have a 1:1 ratio, because take the example of the College Park case, where is the armed student supposed to find 9 more criminals to kill in self defense so there is a 10 to 10 balance.

In fact trying to make a determination either way would be next to impossible.
Simply put, a gun is more likely to be used on those who are around the gun the most.

Anyone who fires on a relative is sick in the head and deserves to be sent to the sanitarium.
