Have you heard the opposite one of this?

Your statement:
"You 'think' one life saved by DGU justifies keeping DGUs legal. They are so why even bring that up? No one is discussing eliminating self defense."

Statements made by anti-gunners:
"If it saves one child, we need to ban xyz..."

Banning guns is VERY close to banning self defense. Not everyone is a black belt, tae-kwon-do, football linebacker super athlete. Those of us that are older, have health problems, or are being confronted with multiple assailants, need a little "equalizing".
