This reminds me of my friend at work. He is the oddball because he doesn't carry or own any personal firearms. He is well traveled, educated, and is in the profession of arms. He said "there is absolutely no reason why a person should own a handgun, with the exception of Law Enforcement". He said "there is no way a gun will ever enter his house". I asked him what happens when he, his wife, and his kid are at a stop sign, and a mugger pulls a knife, or what he will do when the home intruders come through the door. He said "when it's my time, it's my time". He grew up hunting and carries professionally, so he is familiar with firearms, he just feels the risk of owning one outweighs the need. We pick on him alot (put an NRA sticker on his car), and bring up discussions--all in good fun, but nothing we can say or do will change his mind. We agree to disagree, and respect each other's opinions. I can't for the life of me understand his way of thinking, nor he mine.
