<br>I'm not opposed to gun ownership by citizen (which the constitution explicitly allows), but your chances of wounding/killing a family member or a neighbor in error goes up significantly, as does the likelihood that you'll take your own life with it. So while it's true that you may feel more secure and be better able to protect yourself and your family in the rare case that a gun can be effective, it comes with a lot of risk. Personally, I think anyone who owns a gun should be required to be trained/certified to use it properly and safely. The odds of that happening are pretty low, though.

Sad story in this morning's local news about this very topic:

Who is to blame ? So far no charges are pending; it's been labelled "accidental".

Simple: Shall not be infringed !

Gun control only disarms the good guys and is pushed by politicians that have armed guards to protect them. I live in a rural area, it takes the police about 20-30 minutes to arrive, you are on your own. Plus I like to target practice, and I am still terrible for the most part.
