Since any confrontation can turn fatal with weapons other than concealed handguns, the likelihood of these confrontations resulting in daily fatal outcomes is low, so it is equally implausible that banning handguns would prevent these results. Raven Clabough reports for New American Magazine: “More hammers, clubs and other blunt objects are involved in murders than rifles or shotguns, according to the FBI. In 2011, 323 murders were committed with a rifle and 356 with a shotgun, while a staggering 496 were committed with hammers and sticks... Also in 2011, 1,694 people were killed by "knives or tools cutting", much more than from rifles and shotguns combined ”, (Clabough). If it were to take away the right of American citizens to bear arms, the government would also have to ban the use of hammers, clubs and steak knives. These items rack up more murders than firearms. This statement provided by the FBI demonstrates that any confrontation can turn deadly using everyday household items that any person of any age or criminal background has access to.
