I know I will fire a gun at a range, or hunting, whilst they are legal. I am going to do this. I don't think I should own a gun. I also think you should be allowed to hunt with a gun, or shoot at a range. I STILL don't think you should own one. In the UK you can go hunting with the weapons of an organization.

I am a fiery person, when somebody deserves it, I know I would lose it. When I lost it I would defend myself, very well. I also know that if I had a gun in my pocket (euphemism) I would use it. I don't want that to happen, so I don't/never will own a weapon. Most people believe they wouldn't lose it, and use their gun unnecessarily, this is something that can't be proven. Why take the risk?

I agree that we are diametrically opposed, and that's OK! The world would stop spinning without differing opinions.

After popping off a few rounds you realize the levity of what you have in your hands.

Believe me, knowing how to fight or shoot makes one approach situations differently than someone that is untrained.

Training equals cooler head in sticky situations.
