I used to live in a very bad neighborhood in VA, all neighbors were hoods.
my ex-husband insisted we keep loaded (chambered with safety on)
guns in every room of the house. I was sick and tired of opening the kitchen drawer to get a spatula and having to gingerly poke my way around a loaded gun, always checking to make sure the safety was on.
I insisted it was foolish IMO to keep them chambered, considering some of the safeties were not of the best design, and the trigger lb. pull on most of them were fairly light.
I live alone and keep one short sword handy at bedside for now until I can afford another handgun.
