We have gun control in Canada, which is why our gun-death stats are a mere fraction of what they are in the U.S.
And if you do work on your house, you should also follow safety guidelines to minimize your risk of death or injury. Use everything as recommended by safety professionals.
Getting into an encounter with someone who has a gun increases exponentially if you don't have adequate gun control.

And good writing and wit aside, roachboy makes some excellent points, as well. Albeit, good medicine is sometimes hard to swallow in such liberal doses.
