Of course. Which makes murder much more likely as an impulse decision.

BUT... That is not proof that merely having a gun in the house means
that someone in the house is likely to leap up ands start shooting..
 
As I've said a number of times my family had guns in the house for
three generations. I researched it and that is from 1883 to present,
some 140 years with so firearm deaths.....

The data is out there and it seem odd that the ante gunners can't look

I've given data and links to data. You've given an anecdote "It didn't

Trouble is, people with guns _do_ kill people, and do so much more often

Krygowski, and the jerks who did the "study" ignored the fact that
millions of people were never harmed in spite of the fact that they
owned guns and had them in their homes.

Wouldn't that mean, according the Krygowski's twisted "logic," that
having a gun in your home made you less likely to get shot?
