I do support the second amendment, but I believe there needs to be more standardized gun control laws across the country. Also honeychile, you don't have a gun safe? I would think that would be the safest thing you could do.

No, when I'm at home, it's ready for use. Most people who break into a house won't wait while you prepare your gun to fire. However, there are no children or such in the house unless they're visiting.

A lot of cops I know have one on their nightstand. It only takes a second to get into and it is a secure location for it. Then again I also live in a state where it is near impossible to get a carry permit.

I live in a city where it's illegal to own a handgun period.

I'm not going to lie - I'm all for better gun control but I'm seriously against handgun bans.
