Then you acknowledge that they don't make us safer?
I don't acknowledge it, I know one guy was thinking about robbing me but he knew I had a gun and was afraid.

Another time these kids threatened me with guns but they got a phone call from someone else at the party because I was hiding behind a tree with an SKS loaded. They didn't come back.

So yes guns do certainly make you safer nothing stopping them from coming back with a truck load of dudes with baseball bats and where I live police response time is a good 30 minutes so they ain't saving shit.

Not to mention most of the gang related shootings are done with hot guns not legally purchased guns. I keep a hot gun myself. :)

I own guns to kill rattlesnakes if they endanger my family or my animals, and in the event as we are rather secluded I or my family or pets, or animals are in danger I will use them to protect myself, that is the long and the short of it. I do not hunt or carry any arms into public areas. The truth plain and simple.
I don't see any problem with that. I get why some people like guns, I'm just not one of them.

Then the question still remains: If we have the most guns, why aren't we the safest?

Maybe someday you will move to an area of the country that you need them, perhaps not. Personally, I am too old to be fighting in a crazy gun fight, but I will do what I need to do to protect my own children or animals.

I attended college in Washington DC when it was the "murder capital of the United States", and I was an armed security guard for about a year and never even considered owning one. I'm just not a fan.

I agree, where I am moving police will be 30 minutes or more, is really not wise to count on them to save or protect my family or property in the event of some kind of threat. That is just reality...

I understand, but I venture to say after listening to you talk about the love for your daughter and obviously family, if it were necessary to keep the safe you would own a gun...

I certainly would. Again, I have no problem with people wanting to own firearms (with the exception of assault rifles). I just don't like having my intelligence insulted.
