Gun-addiction screening

[ManiacJoe]

20. Silly questions with fun answers.

3.Do you own more than 10 guns?
Yes, due to inheritance.

4.Do you feel suspicious of people in general, or uncomfortable around people who don’t own guns?
No. That would just be silly.

5.Have you ever thought of brandishing a gun to end an argument or confrontation?
No. That would be illegal and immoral.

6.Do you spend more than 5 hours a week on gun forums or reading about guns on the internet?
Haven't timed it. Whatever the number, it is noticeably below the time spent on political sites.

7.Do you stock pile more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition?
Buying in bulk is cheaper by the round. Minimum bulk purchase size is one case (1000 rounds). That is certainly not a "stock pile". Ignorant question.

8.Do you feel your unsafe when you’re not carrying a gun?
Unsafe, no. Less prepared, yes.

9.Have you purchased guns for family members or loved ones even if they did not want one?
No. That would just be silly.

10.Do you always have to have the ‘latest’ in new gun technology?
No. Gun tech changes are incremental and latest does not mean better.

11.Have you ever left a loaded and unlocked gun around you home or vehicle, just in case?
Never in a vehicle. No kids, so in the home is not a problem should it happen.

12.Do you spend more than $5,000/year on guns and ammunition?
Not recently. But quality guns are pricey, so $5K is a rather low bar to meet.
