The gun really doesn't matter its  because no one knows what we will face in this walk thru life ,what does  is life after this mortal life , again my belief ,wished more had my belief  as there would be less violence . Of course again just me

 Those who beat thier swords into plowshares will plow for those who don,t.

Guns are manufactured to kill things. There is no need for anybody to own one unless they want to kill something.

Gun ownership by private citizens helps ensure that the government doesn't become tyrannical and it also provides the ultimate defense against foreign invasion.  I would say that those are two pretty good reasons to own guns that have nothing to do with the gun owner wanting to kill something.  I have owned guns nearly 35 years and I’ve never killed anything, nor have I wanted to. 
If our founding fathers hadn't been allowed to own guns there would be no United States of America.

There was a time where you had to go out and hunt your food.

Now you go to the local grocery store and all the gore is taken away from you.

Doesn't mean it still happens, it just makes your conscience feel better.

I think it's an error to accept the premise that guns were made to kill things. My guns were made to protect things, and most importantly protect lives

Being a non-gun owner (although I am thinking about getting one) I 100% agree but still think more can be done to help gun violence-it is a double edged sword and no easy answers.

There are whacknuts everywhere in every country in every religion, political spectrum, race, and creed. What are we gonna do when a suicide bomber finally gets a C-4 vest into a school auditorium. Or a Suicide bomber blows up a kindergarten with a car bomb. Ban the muslim faith I am sure it is just a matter of time. We need to live our lives normally and do not need politicians to restrict our freedoms everytime a whacknut looses his marbles and opens up on a crowd.

Sooo, as to the OP's original question. Has anybody had personal experience where a concealed (or maybe just accessible?) firearm saved lives? :dunno:

I've been in a situation where a bad guy with a gun was stopped by a good guy with a gun. I honestly can't say if it saved lives because I don't know if the bad guy was willing to use  it, or if he just wanted to wave it around for intimidation. Assuming he was willing to use it, the good guy saved lives.

That's what I mean...If the bad guy has a gun, then you want to have a bigger gun....making you no better then he is...

The invention of the "gun" is probably single worst invention known to mankind.

If you can list one positive thing that has come out of the invention of the "gun" please post them....
( I mean gun in gereral with all types of weapons)
Are you serious? God made man. Samuel Colt made all man equal. If you think just because I have a gun to defend myself somehow makes me "better" than the a$$hole trying to rob, rape or kill me, then you are indeed the biggest fool on this earth. No one is "better" than me. We are all created equal. if I chose to work for a living and put in long hard hours to earn enough money to buy what makes me happy, so be it. if some scuz that choses not to work for a living to obtain his riches comes along and decides that all my hard work all of a sudden belongs to him? Then he will find a huge leaking hole in his chest or head where it deserves/used to be. No apologies, liberal a$$hole. Anymore stupid questions, a$$hat? OOOHHHhhh. maybe I should call the cops and wait for an hour or two. C'mon over dumbass, and see how that all works out. you are a stupid troll, or you are the dumbest person on earth. maybe a combination of the two. Hint, don't go into a life of crime- I predict you won't last long.

Sad but true doesn't mean squat to what you are trying to relate to. If the Watts riots or the Rodney King riots happen, I dare you to try and go to your local grocery store and get a loaf of bread and some deli meat. If you are that stupid, more power to you. Do it un-armed, of course. lol. No one here is talking about gore. No one here is talking about "feeling good" about where their food comes from. Most people nowadays are 'prepped" and won't have to deal with the shooting and the looting. If you haven't taken care of your self, well, it's your own fault. When they come for your food, gee. What ya gonna do, bad boy?
