Don't be afraid, little man.
People have been carrying guns ever since they were invented. Before
that, they carried other items that were capable of severely harming
or killing another human being.

Well :-) With a screw driver you have to get REAL close to do any
damage but with a pistol you can stand off and do even more damage -
Standard U.S. pistol target shooting matches are fired at 50 and 25
Yards.

Thanks for anticipating my point. Guns in private hands makes killing
other people from a distance, just out of paranoia, far to easy.

 
 
Unfortunately (for your thesis)  I can find no data, regarding
homicides committed at a distance, Please post your reference for your
statement ("Frankie's imagination" is not a valid reference)

I've been trying to discover what is the average distance for
shootings is and there doesn't seem to be any such data except for
police shootings which are in the 3 - 4 foot range.

There's very few viable defense tactics the ordinary person can do to
keep from being killed from long distances. It doesn't make much sense
to worry about dangers you can't protect yourself from.
