| 4. Fucked up! And I own a gun. There will be more shootings with more guns. |

Edited on Wed Dec-06-06 06:45 PM by Sapere aude
Not everyone is equipped to own and use a gun. One bad argument and the gun is there. If you have a gun lock on it, you don't have the time to remove the lock, load the gun and shoot an intruder unless you carry the gun around with you.
Fucked up is how I would describe it.
On edit, most people who are killed with a gun knew the killer. It isn't often that the killer is a defender of property.
