That was my answer.
Do you disagree that having a standing professional army makes a milita obsolete?

53 per month in USA.So in reality the average number of women who are murdered by firearm by their intimate partner is around 53 per year.
We weren't talking about whether the chance was high or not.So in reality you’d have a much better chance at winning the lottery than being killed by your intimate partner with a firearm.
I don’t follow.What good is gun control by President Biden,
when his own son should be charged with a felony.
Sounds like a Fourth and Fifth Amendment violation but what do I know?How about enforcing the laws we have already.
Lying on the form, omitting drug addiction is a felony

The presidents own son lied about his drug addiction,
to attain a firearm unlawfully, and this was covered up.
We should follow the laws already on the books,
in this case hunter should be charged with a felony.
Lying on a Federal Form (United States Code 18 Section 1001)
Under U.S. Code 18 Section 1001, it is illegal to knowingly and willfully make any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or representation in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative or judicial branch of the United States.
A conviction for lying on a federal form is punishable
by five to eight years in federal prison.
....
2) The rationale of "it'll reduce the number of times a person can fire the gun before having to reload" isn't particularly effective at preventing the outcome they're seeking to prevent.
Primarily because reloading doesn't take that long...maybe 1-2 seconds for an experienced person, 3-4 seconds for most other people.
So, in practicality, a person with three 10-round magazines isn't really any less dangerous than a person with one 30-round magazine.
I wonder if members of a SWAT team or regular police share your opinion.

"Take the survey just released last week by the National Association of Chiefs of Police. After polling more than 20,000 sheriffs and chiefs of police, the NACOP found that 86.4 percent “support nationwide recognition of state issued concealed weapon permits” and 76 percent believe that “qualified, law-abiding armed citizens help law enforcement reduce violent criminal activity.”
There is probably no group that supports private gun ownership more than the police do.
Rank-and file-police show even stronger support for private gun ownership. PoliceOne, an organization of about 380,000 active and 70,000 retired officers, surveyed 16,000 members on the subject in 2013.
Virtually all of the survey’s respondents said the “assault-weapons” ban, “a federal ban on ammunition magazines that hold more than ten rounds,” background checks on private transfers of guns, and “a national database tracking all legal gun sales” would either do no good or actually cause harm."

Irrelevant to the question I asked.
A standing professional army won't come to my rescue when a burglar breaks into my house.
To be fair, you didn't officially ask a question, but weren't you referring to what cops and SWAT members thought about assault weapons and hi-cap magazines? The last part of what I posted addressed that:
"Virtually all of the survey’s respondents said the “assault-weapons” ban, “a federal ban on ammunition magazines that hold more than ten rounds,” background checks on private transfers of guns, and “a national database tracking all legal gun sales” would either do no good or actually cause harm."
What does this have to do with militias?
Gun Control & Police: Officers Overwhelmingly Support Second Amendment Rights | National ReviewI didn't see the last paragraph. Unfortunately, the "National Review" link to the referenced survey is broke.
I've just done some quick research on CZech gun position.Actually, if you review my previous posts on the topic, I'm actually a pro-gun person (I own several, from basic .22 plinking guns all the way up to the dreaded AR-15, as well as being a carry permit holder), but have voiced my position on several instances here on CF saying that I advocate for the Czech Republic model of gun control.
We weren't talking about whether the chance was high or not.
We were talking about whether having a gun at home increases the chances of being murdered. And it does, significantly
Nothing, which is why I am wondering why you are bringing it up?What do militias have to do with burglars?
