[quote=Anonymous]Another person who never asks and has never been asked.

At some level, it sort of seems like a vanity exercise/virtue signaling. At least in most of DCUM territory, the answer is always go to be either (1) no we don’t have guns, in which case you can band together and tsk tsk gun owners, or (2) yes we have guns but we’re the responsible type of gun owners and we’re in favor of an assault weapons ban and red flag laws and we never give a dime to the NRA and each gun is locked up, unloaded in its own basement vault and every round of ammunition is separately locked up, individually, in its own biometric safe 300 miles away at our beach house. No one is going to be like “yeah we’ve got a half dozen loaded weapons just strewn about the house.”

So while I think it’s a little silly, I also wouldn’t be offended if someone did ask. (DH has a bunch of guns, all in safes but mostly stored loaded. If you keep a gun for personal protection I’m not sure why you would store it unloaded.) [/quote]
