if there had been a gun lying around, at the time, i probably wouldn't be here today laughing at marleypumkin's silly arguments. the fun i would have missed!

so with that in mind, im not sure i want to have a tool nearby that's specifically designed for killing. instead, i'm having a security system installed.

That's my thinking.

Guns make violence too easy. Like nukes. It distances you from the violence. You want to kill someone, arm yourself with a knife or learn how to kill with a punch. Make it upclose and personal. Guns are for cowards.
