I actually am a responsible gun owner. I keep my guns locked up when I’m not going to the range, and I store the ammo separately. When I clean my guns, I always check the chamber to verify it is empty. I have been shooting guns since I was about 8, and I’ve never had a negligent discharge and never will with how anal I am about gun safety.
The only reason I don’t carry is that I don’t have the money for it right now, and I don’t feel I am a good enough shot. I am only confident at 20 to 25 feet.
