I haven't had an accident in my current car. I can't state unequivocally that I will NEVER EVER have an accident.

I can state unequivocally that having a gun in the home adds a variable that homes without guns do not have.

Not to say I know how you store or care for your guns and ammunition. I suspect that like my guns yours are secured in a safe with the ammunition stored elsewhere. I can't and won't say that never under any circumstances will one of my guns ever harm someone.

The best we can do is the best we can do but we are mere mortals and not infallible.
