Do you own a gun? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**w4HPpbSW** · 12-29-2007, 05:30 AM

I figure I shot enough guns in the Army and don't want or need one.

**thegamexpertsdotcom** · 12-29-2007, 05:40 AM

Yes, and I am American.
If you come around here, call first.

**eFDMBwKH** · 12-29-2007, 07:04 AM

I'm glad you brought that up, Will. I had that same thought. The Texas part.

**bely832new** · 12-29-2007, 07:49 AM

Maybe yes or maybe no.

**JeremyBalll** · 12-29-2007, 08:03 AM

I have a paintball gun. Does that count?

**Chito** · 12-29-2007, 08:20 AM

I wouldn't want to get shot in the face by a paint gun. I think that would be a bummer.

Those who voted "No, and I am American" are dirty liars.

**Nosmas** · 12-29-2007, 08:41 AM

All real Americans have gun.

**teentodiefows** · 12-29-2007, 08:47 AM

Nope.

**katespepach** · 12-29-2007, 10:24 AM

I would like a gun as a means of self defense if ever there were a New Orleans style breakdown where I live, but it is virtually against the law to own a gun in Australian suburbia.

.

Why do you own one?

**EnvellFen** · 12-29-2007, 12:29 PM

Never have, nevr will, even if I woulod be allowed to own one.

There are other not potentially lethal methods to make sure that a burglar beaking into your house will think twice about doing it again

**JorgiOLusinio** · 12-29-2007, 01:23 PM

I own two. A 9mm home defense handgun and my grandfathers old German 16 gauge shotgun. An antique!

**rootoronpunty** · 12-29-2007, 04:18 PM

You definitely have a taser.

**nannysuetle** · 12-29-2007, 04:34 PM

Not yet. Maybe someday.

**mr.calisto** · 12-29-2007, 07:46 PM

I wouldn't even know where to get a gun from. I'm middle class and I don't live in south London. I've never even seen a gun in real life before.

**Precturge** · 12-29-2007, 08:19 PM

Used to own a single-shot hunting rifle, my 13th birthday present. Used to go hunting and target shooting with my Dad.

Got rid of it about 20 years ago.

**freeringtonesioo** · 12-30-2007, 12:57 AM

I don't own one, since I'm in the city. Well, even if I were in the country, I doubt I'd own one, since I wasn't brought up in a household that had them.

But my sister and her husband just built their 14 year-old son a really nice gun cabinet. I helped them move it to the living room to be "under the tree" on Christmas Eve. Their family also uses hunting bows and muzzle-loaders.
