Since I announced my sterility , I ' ve seen sterol 100 times . It ' s pretty crazy . <| sep |> That ' s the standard amongst U . S . stranding networks , since it ' s the most humane and the least painful . The others are used as a last resort . <| sep |> Yes , it is difficult to defend against but so is someone trained in fighting that wants to attack you . The chances of someone who is open carrying pulling a weapon and hurting you is slim to none . A vast majority of gun violence occurs in small segments of the US , is gang violence , or other criminal endeavors . Someone getting shot by another person in a gas station over a misunderstanding is extremely rare and not something to fear . You cannot eliminate guns because they exist . When something exist , a person can obtain it if they have the resources and motivation to do so . When it comes to that , legality is irrelevant . A person will always acquire what they want despite the law . I know if I couldnt legally purchase a gun and wanted one , I would buy one anyway and it wouldnt even be that hard . In fact , buying one illegally might even be quicker and easier than going the legal method .
