To gun or not to gun...that is the question.

Since I am paranoid of the mad max state of the world to come when the peak oil downfall happens, I think I should have a gun to protect the bandits from coming into my home and taking it over and stealing my food and clothes. But will I really need it? And when I need it, will it be readily available? Or will my small child find it and a disaster occur? Well, I have taken safety classes, gone to the range many times, and am convinced that I can safely secure it to keep from danger hapening. But I can have it available to use as a sport for fun, and have the piece of mind knowing it is there to protect my family. All those stats on kids finding guns are because of dumb ass parents keeping it loaded and unlocked. The constitution says I can have one, but my wife says I cant. What to do?

Since you arent sharing a bed with the founding fathers I would suggest getting rid of it.

Yes, but she told me earlier last week that she expects me to be the framily protector, which I will be happy to be. She shouldnt be able to tell me how to provide that protection should she? Their the ones all bent out of shape about "double standards", which is exactly how she is playing this one.

It is noble to want protect your family to the best of your ability.... but remember marriage is a partnership not a dictatorship

Ah yes...a partnership. As long as I do exactly what she wants me to do. :)

I was suggesting some type of compromise..such as keeping the gun somewhere other than your home until you are certain that people are coming to kill you for your cans of beans
