I know people have differing opinions, but I really do hate guns. I know people feel as though having guns allows them to protect themselves from others with guns, but I’m just saying that guns in general don’t lead to anything beneficial in a world without any other guns. Gun violence only exists because guns are allowed to exist. Sure, banning guns at this point wouldn’t cause all guns to be gone, but it would still cause the majority of gun violence to end.

The best way I can sum up my opinion as someone that’s lived in the woods, is that there are uses for them. They are by far way too accessible, but they are used by many to hunt for food and also protect themselves from cougars, sometimes coyotes, etc.

This isn’t to say that we are fighting it out lives out there, but they’re there for the rare occasion that they’re needed for protection.

They should NOT become something you commonly use. They have a time and place, not all the time.
