Studies have shown that having a gun at home can increase the risk of firearm-related violence, and someone who lives in that house or visits it is 12 times more likely to be killed by that gun than a burglar.
That said, many people own guns—a nationwide Centers for Disease Control survey found that 32 percent of Americans have one at home.
What do you think? Would you care if your guy kept a gun at home?
Would you be okay with your guy hiding a gun at home?
* Yes. It makes me feel safe. 31%
* No. It freaks me out. 21%
* I have my own gun at home. 32%
* It doesn't bother me either way. 15%

“Send picture of boat and motor.”
Would pictures of the Remington shot gun and rifle with scope do (they are in new condition), as I don’t have a boat and motor. What a pity, bet I just missed my chance.
Possibly ping list worthy.
Mrs CW3 is an expert with a number of handguns, I am a retired SA and can shoot rather well, should someone wander into the residence they really should have considered their options a bit before breaking in.
My wife who is every bit the fashion maven Gurley-Brown wished she had been...blogs about cutting edge clothing stuff from odd places like Denmark .....thinks Kate Moss is a demigod for coolness and style at 40 and was a former music video chick herself back in the day before I corrupted her..and serially repopulated the earth with her
says for the record she thanks Gawd her man has guns and knows how to use them to protect her and all those spawn* she cares for in their home in the country
let me tell you kids here ..this from a dude who lived amongst the bots in NYC and lived with a Barnard prof when all this crap took off in the 80s
even the worst harridan strident fembot shrew deep inside still wants a man to be a man...open doors...go Rhett on her from time to time...see the movie...”the staircase incident”
and make her feel safe and taken care of
don’t be that little dwarf dweeb letting her drive the Prius
nut up!
*oldest manchild at 12 is actually adequate to fill in for pride leader if called upon...knows where they are and what to do with them...at today gorgeous dove hunt...he hit more than daddy to be honest...it was the guns’ fault (an 80 year old Sweet Sixteen modyfied)...lol...the doves felt sorry for me and flew lower and slower so I could see them
???? Thought I d/fingeredeleted the first.
very positive comments on the site
all things considered
guns empower women...literally..more than a nice “career” paychek even
women without guns live in a physical fear most men simply never have till we men get older then you realize you are getting more like how women feel
not steady or quick enough to fight like you used to...and i hate that to tell ya the truth
my last gig was at 43 and I won...a much younger man too..but I know now any fight I get in better be quick and if I hit the gravel rolling around it will hurt a lot more
my boys are getting older and damned tuff...maybe they can cover for me..lol
my own dad could kick ass till mid 60s...
in all seriousness ...lack of balance is what I feel more than anything except of course...wind
My comment was based upon an old joke.
But nevermind that for now. Do you believe a man aint gotta' be pretty?
That gun wouldn't be of much use if you first had to go looking for it instead of having it close to hand.
Five steps is the furthest I have to go at any time and I sometimes feel that even that is too far.
And what is this woman supposed to do if the guy is killed and she didn't know where the gun was hid?
Just lay still under the bed or hide in the closet and hope she isn't found?
What an illogical poll.
The pity is that what you write doesn’t come naturally to many young men today. Of course they get subjected to a non-stop deluge of propaganda that encourages them to be wimps so why should we be surprised...
Yes, I knew that joke, knew where you were coming from.
“Do you believe a man aint gotta’ be pretty?”
If a man isn't intelligent, doesn't matter what he looks like. That's my preference, probably not most women's preference.
I live with my attack Yorkie and we are prepared for whatever happens. If the SHTF, could take my preps and go live with Johnny but afraid he would feed me the local weeds in a gourmet meal, so I'll stay home.
I hope you are a prepper so you will be safe.
She should wear gloves to cover the liver spots.
Is that the Queen?
The 4th(counting from 0) has nice hair.
For x=0to$whatever...
I've been trapped by that fencepost error for the last time. We count from zero.

“Maybe not. If you have ‘Mossy Oak’ carpeting I might be talked into ignoring a certain phobia.”
That must be a joke but I don’t get it.
Because I need a cranky old broad around here for... what?
T'would end in bludgeoning or poison, I'm afraid. For who, I'm not quite sure. ;)
I ping you for your pithy opinions. You haven't let me down.
/johnny
“Is that the Queen?”
Yes, Queen of England, you got it.
Yes, our opinions would clash exponentially until critical mass was reached, producing chaos.
You're a nice kid, just not old enough to compete with an elder such as I am.
Everybody did their part... Now, I guess she shoots guys that snark.
I should be more respectful...
