   @markwyner Re: Gun ownership.

   As someone who does own guns: it isn't enough to own them. You have to learn them and then be willing to use them. You have to be willing to invest in the right _kind_ of guns as well.

   I don't think it is a bad idea per se, but it is incredibly personal, only matters so much, and there's no committing halfway.

     @markwyner Like for example: I own guns suitable to hunting or if you need to put down a horse or somesuch. I do _not_ own, nor do I want to own, the kinds of guns that people like to buy for harming people.

     The ones I have would work for that just fine, but that's not what they are optimized for. Still, I keep them in a safe, unloaded, and make sure they are in good repair on a regular basis

     So what is your goal with ownership? Start there and decide if that's something you want to commit to

     Also - you must invest in and commit to safe, locked storage of any firearms.
