So Are UK People Not Protecting Their Families Properly But Not Owning Guns ?? - GoFuckYourself.com

Am i guessing correctly ??

If the view is "i need a gun to protect my family", then doesn't that mean for each household that doesn't own a gun, their family is at a greater risk ?

Yet i bet more families in the UK feel safer at home than in America...

Strange that...

I love living in the USA. But in ways i felt safer in the UK, as there arent as many guns around, it seems so easy to get a gun here which scares me!

Correct. If almost every person in the country already has a gun and guns are legal and easy to get then it's indeed safer to have a gun yourself.

i feel much safer in the uk knowing an attacker/burglar is much less likely to have a gun, however the self defence laws in UK are much different (they favour the attacker in 90% of legal cases)

Personally speaking, last year i was charged with assult after a 35 year old man attacked me, and because he didn't bet on me putting up a fight, i ended up charged with assult and he got a police caution.

I kow in the US they would have taken a much more common sense approach of "it serves u right for attacking the kid"
