...... The stats indicate that armed people are far more likely

Only police (c: AFAIK the only "study" indicating this was a wash
promulgated by Sarah Brady's nut group. They found ONE obscure rural US
county in which there had been one justifiable homicide and 47 suicides
since the county began keeping records. From these dubious data they deduced
that you're "47 times more likely" to be killed by your own gun than to
defend yourself with it. This deduction ASSumes that the rest of the world's
experiences match that one county and that guns are never used defensively
unless someone is justifiably killed. Both are patently ridiculous but the
idiot press still drags out this lie when convenient. Every broadbased, and
thus statistically valid study shows just the opposite.

http://www.atf.gov/firearms/faq/faq2.htm:

US Federal law provides a person, who is not prohibited by the GCA from
receiving or transporting firearms, the right to transport a firearm under
certain conditions, notwithstanding state or local law to the contrary. The
firearms must be unloaded and in a locked trunk or, in a vehicle lacking a
trunk, in a locked container other than the glove compartment or console.
Also, the carrying and possession must be lawful at the place of origin and
destination. [18 U. S. C. 926A, 27 CFR 178.38] 9.

Unfortunately many states' police resent this and will instead arrest you
for having that big bag of coke you didn't know you had, not to mention the
explosives and kiddy porn and ......

it is interesting to note that the IQ is used to describe deficits in
intelegence...for reason snobs thought that being less deficiant than some
others was an atribute...so they started a club for those less challanged
than the bulk of society...looks good on them.
