I brought it up because from reading your initial statement you imply that the likelihood of needing the gun to defend one's self would be reduced under said law.
That was the propaganda I took issue with, and always will, whenever/wherever I find it.
I don't think he said that at all. He is stating that, statistically, most people will never need to use their gun. He is not stating that increased gun control will reduce crime. You seem to be reading something into his statement that isn't there.
