What self defense tool is as effective as a firearm, especially in hands of a smaller or elderly person? Any gun control measure that restricts firearms makes it harder to defend yourself. I'd like to think you can depend on the police but that's not always the case.

Bump stocks were outlawed. What impact did that have on self-defense?

What impact did restricting assault weapons have on self defense?

You are making a claim here. It is necessary for you to back up your claim with evidence. The goal post already moved from the original comment I replied to, which is fine. To avoid further wriggling, though, we need data.

You brought up the point of banning (restricting) all firearms. No sense arguing about assault weapons since that's a loosely based term. I think the fact that all the world's police use firearms should point to their effectiveness.
