Just three percent of adults own half of America’s guns

24. Just wondering do you know me?

You made the post in response to mine and even directly the home defense part. By saying "Keeping guns for "self defense" is about as fanciful as keeping dragons, but much more dangerous." That is about the same as a child saying "because". You make some kind of cute blanket statement as if everyone with a home defense gun is stupid or negligent. That is about the same as saying be afraid of every muslim because there are some muslim terrorist. You made the statement toward me with out any actual knowledge of me.

I have known people who are totally negligent about having guns. You can see people in the news who leave guns laying around and children get them. That doesn't mean everyone is. If you came in to my house you would not be able to access any of my guns with out a sledge hammer and a couple pry bars. And even then it would take you a long time to get in a large well rated, bolted to the floor safe.

So yes I do have a home defense weapon. And I gave thought about it even as to caliber and style before buying it. I even keep it locked up.
