I am glad to get that reply from you because the first one whirld me up internally. I guess it was good because I was thinking about it more than before. I don't want everybody running around with guns but I don't care at all if a family stores a gun at home. But I also don't think that it is beneficial if every woman (or man) walks around with a gun in her purse. I mean when a rpist comes along and knows everybody runs around with guns he will bring his own gun and draw before his victims.
What i don't like about the discussion is the discussion itself. Pro-gun, anti-gun. Some want to ban them for phony reasons and some want to keep them for phony reasons (your reasons are actually plausible but I refer to things like save oneself from a fascist goverment or things like that). In the meantime we are seperated again instead of united.
