Most people get a gun for personal/family protection. I know that is why I have one. As the victim of a home invasion when I was younger I may have been able to prevent being attacked if I had a gun.

2. Also, why is it that the people yelling loudest about national security, who are willing to sign away our rights in the interest of public safety, are the ones most staunchly opposed to restricting guns? Gun violence in America kills more Americans every year than all terrorist attacks totaled. Why are we willing to go to such great lengths for safety from others, but not for safety from within?
| I don't find this to be accurate at all. I believe most people who have guns are very responsible and want them for safety. Gun violence is very high in America but I am not certain if you are talking about legal guns or illegal ones. Limiting guns to law abiding citizens I do not believe will stop the gun violence in this country. |
