in a way i understand the american notion of owning a gun. but im opposed to what shallow nonsensical reason some people are making up to justify it

in all honesty i dont know what its like to live in the us.. maybe there really is a need to own a gun for your own protection..maybe that is the case. what i do know that we dont have a need in europe, to think that every jock here would have a gun.. i would also feel the need for protection

but what i really think is a abomination are people who carry them in public since concealed carry is prohibited in many states.. they get to openly carry them and i dont think that is necessary unless you are in a really really bad neighbourhood

some might say its for safety.. i can understand a gun at home.. more or less but guns in public i cant, it makes people around you feel uneasy because they have no idea whats going on in your head because they dont know you, its not like were in isreal where people in some areas are indeed under a constant thread

to me its just no part of being a civil soceity

and frankly i find it ..strange that just anyone who passes some background check can purchase a gun and do as he or she pleases ... around here you have to be over 21 and a member of either the huntsmen society ,the sport shooting organisation or the policeforce..otherwise its nigh impossible for any healthy sane person to aquite a gun..but like it said there is no need
