Mike Bloomberg: Having a Gun in Your Home Puts You at Risk

Democrat presidential hopeful Mike Bloomberg suggested average Americans are placed at higher risk of death or injury by having a gun in their home, during a CNN town hall on Wednesday.

Bloomberg said, ā€œYou don’t want to have guns. If you have a gun in your house you’re something like 22 times as likely to get killed with a gun.ā€

He added, ā€œThere’s domestic violence, there’s children playing, there’s accidents.ā€

Bloomberg did not provide any substantiation of his claim that owning a gun makes someone ā€œ22 times as likely to get killed with a gun.ā€

Nor did he mention Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health study thatĀ found noĀ ā€œclear association between firearm restrictions for domestic abusers and reduced fatal mass shootings,ā€ a point which is pertinent in light of Bloomberg’s association of gun ownership and domestic abuse.

Although Bloomberg suggests Americans ought not have guns in their homes, Breitbart NewsĀ reportedĀ that he lives his life surrounded 24/7 by armed guards, thereby depending on good guys with guns to keep him safe.
