At the moment, I think that the whole nation is doing that. Another mass killing with the favored weapons for that sort of thing.
Yes, I have had to defend myself with a gun. Used a single shot 12 gauge, backed down 10 assholes that intended me great harm. You don't need war weapons to defend yourself. In fact, an old Colt .45 is a whole lot easier to carry, and plenty impressive.God gave us the right to shoot guns?
No, the gun is just a tool.

First, Christians generally believe (and historic Anglo-American jurisprudence assumes) that the right of self-defense is included within the rights to life, liberty and property, and that those rights come from God and are contained in Scripture. In an age where all attackers must be presumed to have firearms and a large percentage of them actually do, many Christians therefore believe that it is inherent to that right of self-defense that every individual be able to possess and use such weapons to defend those rights.

And tools make things easier. Now, what do guns make easier?
Let's see..... cooking french fries? Nope! Walking to work? Nope! Killing people? Spot on.
Perhaps saving mine and Mr Geaux4it's life a few months ago. I would hate to have found out what would have transpired if I had not had my weapon, and then dispatched it.

Imagine living in a world where you didn't fear that sort of thing happening at all.
