This question mostly goes to americans (or residents of any other country where it is legal).
Do you have any firearms? For what purpose do you have it and have you ever used it?
Everyone else can discuss if people should have a right to have a gun or not.
Maybe if you become an American citizen, with the crime rate no 1 in the world lets you have firearms.
Because it is useful to keep yourself, when this robbery is very helpful for you to take care of yourself.
Indeed when you have a weapon you must have permission to have it, but not a few of those who have it without permission.
if it works to keep yourself, no problem.
