usually, they have no response. you see, anti gun people are weird in that they only think about guns in peace time when everything is all nice and good. they wonder, why does anyone need a gun? most pro gun people think about worst case scenarios and would rather be prepared their entire life for the unlikely versus become a statistic. of course you wouldn't NEED a gun if no one ever got murdered, robbed, assaulted, etc. im pretty sure anyone in who has been a victim had at least a moment of thinking "boy i really wish i had a gun right about now"
