My husband owns a gun, I have never handled one.    He keeps it locked in a gun safe.   I have no desire to learn how to shoot one, and if I lived alone I would most likely not have one.   That said...

Why does owning guns only relate to safety?    I can't understand the whole they don't "need" that argument.   If you are a collector, why can't you own it?  because someone doesn't have a comfort level with you owning it?

Very bizarre thinking.  

It's deliberate, to change the perception of the sheeple from "right" to "justification".

I read the perfect answer to the statement about "need": "Why do I need a rifle? Because **** you, that's why."

I am absolutely unconcerned about what type of weapons my neighbors own (if any) and I'm pretty sure that they are not worried about the weapons I have.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value.

Are they sure that's not a Red Rider BB gun?!  How can they be certain?

technically speaking you won'y hear it if it's used right. A .50 round travels pretty far and the record shot wit hone is well over 2,000 meters. Anyone that could hear the shot from that far off and still make it out of the line of fire is probably someone you don't want to mess with.

The .50 Browning round should still be well supersonic out to a mile - so technically if you heard the shot - you weren't the target.

That was what I meant.  If his neighbor has the 50, and he is friends with his neighbor, and he hears it, and so on and so on and so on.
