Earlier you brought up your military training. That is much different than carrying a self defense weapon as a civilian. The military engages the target as part of their mission. Civilians defend themselves and those around them when their circumstance unfortunately requires them to do so. Only criminals do otherwise within a civilized society.
what is creating these circumstances where people have to defend themselves with lethal force bruv?

I don't know about the rest of the people in this thread, but I blame the murder weapon. The murder was a good boy that wasn't given the upbringing the rest of us had.

They are not the source. They used a different source. It is listed as such in the images you've posted.

I've looked at Everytown's data in the past. Your newspaper needs new fact checkers.

In fact, every bit of data on the subject shows that guns increase the likelihood of converting an aggravated assault to a murder. Indeed, the guns are to blame for turning assaults into murder more successfully than any other tool.
Our baseline violence and want to commit assaults has other blames. But our murder rate has a large component of a tool to easily complete the homicide with little barrier.
