Suddenly the US second amendment doesn't seem so archaic. Must admit, if I were allowed to I'd have bought a firearm for home defence recently. I think in this period of great uncertainty and threat there's a growing case for allowing certain people to possess and even carry firearms on our streets. Note for the hysterical - I'm not advocating a US-style free-for-all.
Fair enough you're not going the free-for-all route, but is there any real need for you to have one?
Have you been robbed recently? Felt that having a gun would increase your safety in what way exactly, I mean I'm assuming that it would be purely to kill whoever comes into your house to rob it, as we're a long way off having to have any need to carry on the streets.
Besides the second amendment is purely archaic, adopted on December 15, 1791, for instance:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Or did you want a gun to form some sort of militia?
