So you could call the cops telling them that someone is going to come to your house and kill you and they could not come. Yes, that is not likely to happen, but technically speaking it could. also, the police don’t work that way….they have a duty to protect the public as a whole, not individual people.

If someone breaks in your house and they have a gun, and you can get to your gun and shoot them before they kill you, why not? Another thought, if everyone over the age of 21 carried a gun, (with a safety and citizens without any criminal record, etc.) then crime would dramatically decrease. Honestly, you go to a gas station with the intent of robbing it as well as the people in it, you illegally have a gun and all the other law abiding citizens do not have a gun vs a gas station full of people that have guns. Are you really going to rob the gas station? No, of course not. And if it did become illegal for everyone to have guns, the criminals would still manage to get their hands on the guns anyways; especially considering they do so now. Yes, I understand why you think your views are a good idea; and in theory they should work, but this isn't a perfect world. debbie, you’re an idiot.

That said however, it is the second amendment of the constitution and without another amendment to override it, one cannot simply not allow people their rights. I for one however, will never own a gun. @debbie: I agree with you due to scientific findings showing that owning guns inside your home actually raises the probability of injury of death.
