[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 590884, member: 3305"] Susie, You are so right...a wise woman I might add. This is a devisive issue in my house. Well, I texted easy child again with the "mace/pepper spray" suggestion, also noted the mentally ill people in her family...and here is what she said, "I don't care. It'll be on me at all times. I work at 2 gas stations, one that is really ghetto and a homeless man chills inside all day. A gun is only a problem for the insane if the sane don't store it correctly. I'm getting a gun. That's not the only reason...The Final reason is because the government is trying to take guns away and one day it'll be okay in the governments eyes to walk into my house and take it over. That's one reason I'm getting out of this country And a reason for a gun. Someone would have to kill me to take my home and I'm not goin down without a fight. If I don't have a gun, what would I do? Get a giant metal sheild? A bullet proof jacket? What if I get shot in the head? Just because I couldn't shoot them first. I want my gun ASAP. " by the way, husband does plan on a trigger lock, lessons, and a gun safe. It still makes me nervous. I sure hope young difficult child does not find out that she is getting a gun for her birthday. He has made several near suicide attempts in the past. Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions. I know easy child is a fiercely independent young woman and she is living alone (off campus) with her cat in another state. I guess if she is responsible enough to do all of that and work while going to school, bowling, training, homework etc on her own I should be respectful of her "other rights" as well. I just feel like things can go wrong when a gun is around. LMS [/QUOTE]
