Note, the idea doesn't support the idea of carry permits. Personally, dont have an issue with a hunting rifle or shotgun kept in a safe at home, but carry and especially cc permits are absolutely insane. You do not need a firearm that can be hidden for either home defence or hunting.

Colt didn't call it the great equalizer for nothing. Imagine being a 90 lb woman facing rape or death by a 200 lb man. Don't think for a second anything but a gun will allow her to save herself.

Pepper spray for example. Will it stop all people that would be stopped by a gun? No. But on the other side, it would lower this number at least.
