Would this be true almost exclusively only if your adversary had a gun and you knew in advance that he was coming to "get you."

I don't think for a moment that you or anyone is deluded, I think you feeling safer is an emotion comfort brought to you by a firearm which may not be the case in fact.

Walking down the street or being asleep at home and caught off guard having a gun at the ready might well prove to have the opposite effect of keeping you and yours safe.

Least this is what most studies not done by the NRA find.
