Your opinion appears to be counter to the Constitution and you
believe that you're winning something? Murder rates tend to be lowest
in areas with the most highly rural populations so zsparate people
and you don't have violent confrontations. Gun laws make little to no
diffrence.

Fear? OK, perhaps. Rational risk assessment is another equally valid term.

  Well, the discussion was centered on Frank's statement that people
that carried a gun are cowards
"I'm just pointing out that almost all people who carry guns do so
because they are afraid"
 and suddenly he changes the subject to "infinitesimal".
 That's not a change   of subject?

no, it wasn't

It was a direct and pointed response to a specific claim - not a change of subject.
John, just stop now. You're clearly not able to follow the gist of the conversation
