As for the grandma, she can just give her purse, and the guy will msot likely flee the scene without further ado. She can call the cops as soon as she's safe.
People need a lisence to drive in all 50 states, but can carry guns openly in public in many states. How does this make sense?
The militia is an organized, structured fighting force made up of citizens, aka our armed forces
The thing is, far more people are killed by their guns than saved by them (43 times as many, to be exact. And you still haven;t debunked any part of that study yet)
Grandma giving her purse isn't what the perp wants - he's out to rape her.
Read the study you cited---the debunking is in there. Read what the other posters have said. Reading is fundamental.
The guns used in crimes during the handgun ban were from other states. And crime has gone down in Chicago DESPITE looser gun laws, since gun ownership as a whole is decreasing, meaning fewer gun owners committing crimes with their guns
You are so funny!! Now I know definitely are trolling. No one can seriously be that uninformed and actually believe that tripe.

Find a story where guns have been taken away from gun owners and used against them. Post a link. I'll post 20 self defense links for every one of yours. As anti gun as the media is that shouldn't be too hard if you are correct.
Earlier in this thread, I've already posted links to successful self defense stories that have happened just recently.

Welcome to the People's Democratic Socialist Republic of America.
Now I know your just trolling.
The gun ban in Chicago is working? Seriously? The murder capital of the US?
If you recall when congress voted down the gun control bill, Obama expressed his anger and issued 22executive orders on gun control. He went as far as his powers legally let him.
Actually, Chicago is much safer than Louisiana, Alabama, etc. where there are few gun laws but tons of bodies.
And you must be trolling me to think that an average citizen has any legitimate use of a military assault weapon
Even the girl who wanted concealed carry on college campus (how crazy is that?) admitted that the statistics were correct
