I've never owned a gun.
My father had a BB gun when he was a young boy, otherwise never owned a gun.
I have three brothers who have never owned a gun.
I have two sisters -- one's husband never owned a gun, one's husband has a deer rifle for hunting in upstate NY.

I've only lived in the States for seven years of my adult life, but during those times, the vast majority of friends and coworkers didn't have guns. I've never been robbed or seen a gun used in public. Although I carried a gun at work every day during a four-year stretch, I don't think they belong in the hands of irresponsible people. And there's no good way to legislate that with all the moonbats demanding justice and equality for all.

I think there are gun enthusiasts and those that don't care for them. I certainly do not agree with ceburat's claim that most American families have many guns in their home. It's not been my experience.

Guns are legal if registered properly and as the local police chief said ^^^ as long as they're given away in accordance with the law, it's no different than a bank giving away a toaster for every newly opened account.
