Pick up a copy of Lotts book "More Guns, Less Crime". It's packed full of validated information that has been attacked by anti gunners but not one of them has been able to disprove what he says.
I don't think most law abiding people who carry guns have the training to react so quickly to such circumstances as to be able to shoot the criminal or criminals in order to stop them.
