Hmmm, not sure I read that anywhere, got a link to that statistic?
I've carried a firearm for many years, work at a gun range, shoot long guns, shoot trap, teach range safety, teach reloading, teach hunter safety.... Hell, I should be have been shot plenty of times by your statistic, correct?
... But I respect anyone's decision, carry or not, it's a personal thing.
