It seems that lately far too many people I know and work with - are carrying guns. Even inside my office!! That's scarey, and must be illegal(?)
Last year our step nephew committed suicide with a rifle (yes, he had to rig it just right - I will not go into details) and another older friend of ours killed himself also because of a health problem and meds could no longer help him deal with the constant intense pain.
I've shot guns & rifles, bows and other weapons and I learned how to be safe with them also but I just don't think people need to be so open about what they have & how & when they plan to use their weapons! It's almost like they can't wait to be a hero! Now...Unless you live in a dangerous area and get mugged & or robbed alot or have been assualted and are totally paranoid. Maybe then. I'd understand your mind set. Luckily I live someplace safe & crime free, at least so far. So for me guns are not the norm - but seem to be creeping into society at an alarming rate. And kids are killing more kids. That's just not normal.
