I'm very anti-gun for myself and live in an area where it's fairly rare or at the very least open carry is not a thing cause it's weird to see guns in every day life. I have shot a pistol at a shooting range and I remember it being way more powerful than expected. I actually enjoy first-person shooter video games and whatnot but in actual life I don't want one. If I ever had to shoot someone...then I have to live with the fact that I shot someone. Not really how I want to be. I'm sure I'd shit myself in the moment but if it came to having to defend myself and I died cause I didn't have a gun...well I guess that was my time.
