It just reinforces what I've said all along:

If you have no means to defend yourself, you have three choices when faced with a violent attacker:

1) Flee if you are fast enough.
2) Submit if you are tough enough.
3) Engage in a physical contest of strength with your attacker if you are strong enough.

In every case, the weak are at the mercy of the strong.

There is no doubt that a firearm is a huge equalizer in the face of a violent criminal, and your data shows it.
