[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have guns, and because of my husbands job most people know we have them.m. I am huge hypocrite because my husband is one of the few people I feel safe with having a gun. Most of our friends are anti-gun and agree that my husband is one of the few people they feel safe with owning a gun. He has had extensive training, is an expert marksman and nothing is more important to him than gun safety. You won’t see him wearing any ridiculous 3 percenters shirts or pretending be some kind of sheepdog either. [/quote] I guess I should add none of our guns were recent purchases, and our kids have never shot a gun. If my kids wanted to when they was older and went through the gun safety classes, my husband would take them to the range, but as it stand they are still young and impulsive. They would never be able to touch a gun in our home since ours are stored properly in a safe, and in a room that the kids don’t even access to. However they have been taught what to do if they ever see a gun at someone’s house or a friends tries to show them one. [/quote] I'm also married to someone who carries a gun for work. He comes home, it goes into a biometric safe, the ammo goes into a different safe. Both safes are in a space that we'd notice if the kids went in, and are out of reach. I don't love that there's a gun in the house, but I trust my DH. [/quote] Do you have kitchen knives? Household cleaners? Prescription or non prescription medicine? Flammables? Power tools? Paint, thinner, car fluids? Do you worry about those inanimate objects self-locomoting and forming evil intent to harm you or yours? So what is it about “a gun in the house?” Guns are inanimate objects with a utilitarian use, dangerous if misused. Irrational fear of weapons calls for education. [/quote]
