I don't need no stinking gun.
I got a wife that you really don't wanna piss off.

1 :12 Ga Remington 870 shotgun , 1: Savage 20Ga/ .22 Over /Under, 1: .22 revolver, 1:.45 Ca 1911 Colt @ Brother's House in S.Carolina. That's where the real arsenal is.
If guns are such bad things, why is the incidence of strong armed robbery LESS in states with Concealed Carry laws ???
Why has armed robbery INCREASED in the UK, where private ownership is OUTLAWED ????
Gun control means hitting what you're aiming at.

I just sent it over the edge, 59-58. I feel special now.

(I have a Mossberg 12 Guage, 3" magnum, 18" barrel, pump action)

Well I think depends on what area from the US is from. I mean I would think lots of the southeast/northeast go hunting quite a bit.

If you pool California or any other fairly liberal state, I'm sure there would be A LOT of people w/o a gun.
As for me and my family, no. Never needed one, and the places I live are relatively safe. (and not like theres hunting in Southern California).

I have several rifles and only 2 handguns.. But I also Hunt so it can be expected! besides I personally feel safer with a gun in my house than if I was without...

UPS dude just dropped off three FAL kit guns yesterday.

I'll learn a little home gunsmithing and wind up with some bitchin' rifles in the bargain.

No.
Not really into hunting or shooting. Also live in one of top 10 safest cities in the US.
I'll take my chances. I think it's a more likely I would kill myself with a gun than a someone would kill me.
I do respect people's right to own a gun if they are responsible adults. I also took a gun safety course in case I need or want to get one later.
