Well.....because it has been a right that almost anyone can buy a gun in a store, there are lots of guns in America.

Also, there are lots of crazy people in America.

You're right about the purpose of guns, they have a purpose to kill, or at least to stop in regards to self defense. I personally don't want to kill anyone who is breaking into my house, I don't know how that would sit with me the rest of my life. On the other hand, I would want to defend me and my people.

If you ban the sale of guns, the violence involving guns won't stop. America will never clear its land free of guns. Too many guns, too many people who don't care about law.

Because there are lots of guns and lots of crazy people who do not care about abiding by the law, there comes a relevant decision that is made by myself and I'm sure many of the others here on this board, and that is do I need one for protection?

I personally have grown up around guns and I have not ever thought about carrying one until the VT incident.

Because guns will always be here, the idea of carrying a weapon for protection will always be relevant.
