my dad does. i have been to the shooting range with him and its fun. as long as you know everything about them and handle them properly (like my dad goes over 1293819083 times - which is GOOD) then you should be ok. but you still have to be super careful.
last month i went to the NRA conferance in pitts, pa for the weekend with my parents, brother, and my best friend. anyone else go?

Don't now but my husband is in the process of getting one for safety reason. I would let him get one unless he took shooting lessons and also went shooting plenty of times with my dad.

I took weapon training for my first job out of college, then the NRA personal protection course a couple years ago. I have a license to carry a concealed weapon.
FWIW, the NRA personal protection course is only 1/3 about correctly using a gun - the rest is very good information on how NOT to be in a position to need a gun, or how to get out of it. I would highly suggest it to EVERYONE!
ETA: Oops! Should have added that my friend in high school had a crush on the Captain of the Rifle Team, and she talked me into trying out. I made the team, she didn't (but I didn't stay on). I usually shoot in the high 90's.

I don't own one, don't need one, and don't really want one. But I want my right to own one to remain.

Georgia  There's an individual in jail right now for aggravated stalking because of me. No restraining order will keep him from doing whatever he wants. I live alone too.
ETA: I must say, I'm not a random gun toter! I've been trained on nearly all guns (aside from assault weapons). I'm working with my uncle in the ATF to do this thing legit.

If you find a gun, leave it alone. Don't touch it. Tell an adult.

My husband has one, bought it not long after he graduated college and lived alone. He has taught me the very basics of handling, but I prefer not to. It is kept, unloaded, in its case.

LMAO!
You're nuts.
However, I do think there are certain GCers who should stay away from any weapon!

Yes, own a lot of Weapons, Hand Guns and Long guns!
Registered, no. Govt has way fo gettting to you if you do!
Am I worried about what the new Home Security can do, you bet I am! They can come into your House or Business and not have a warrent.
Do you know, that your phone, cell phone, computor is monitered? 
Yes it is! I did not beleive it when someone from ex Milintary Int. told me that and two weeks later it came out in the news of the computors of listening stations all over the world!
Showed the Computor that monitoried Key Words and hit on them! Those sites, and phone Numbers were then monitered.
Big Bro at its best!
