When you say at what cost is the right to bear arms costing other Americans, the answer is not that much. In fact in some cases it saves us. According to Dr. Henry Kleck, who works for the National Crime Survey, says, "gun-wielding civilians in self-defense or some other legally justified cause kill between 1,500 and 2,800 felons, which is 2.5-7 times as many criminals as are shot dead by the police." He also claims, "there were about 8,700-16,600 non-fatal, legally permissible wounds of criminals by gun armed civilians."
