<<Care to comment on homicides avoided because the intended victim had the means to protect himself and his family.>>

If you are asserting that this happens frequently (or ever) please support your argument with evidence. Thanks.

If you have no evidence...

"That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence." ~Christopher Hitchens

Study findings were noteworthy: homicides perpetrated by strangers...
Homicides of this kind were relatively uncommon in our study population'much less common than
deaths perpetrated by the victim's partner, family members, or friends. But when they happened,
people living with gun owners did not experience them less often than people in gun-free homes.
