If guns were legal, would you own one?

Would you own a gun if it were legal?

Only a select few people are allowed to own a gun but what if everyone had the ability to own one?

Well if we assume I'm over 18...
No, I really don't see the point when I live in an urban area.
Absolutely not
I live in the US and don't own a gun. :dontknow:

I would like one, but my wife has other ideas.

Smart wife
Yes I need to rob more banks and being able to legally acquire a gun would make it easier for me :colondollar:


Spoiler

If everyone could have access to one then I would too, primarily for self defence. No guns at all is the better option however.

Not really. I live in a town with a lot of crime, in a not very nice area and I want to be able to protect myself and her should the need arise.
I have no need for one.
Nope.
No. I don't believe that members of the public should own one.
Probably not, I can't really see myself with a gun.
They are, and I do.

really? how?
I thought you need a very special reason to own one
Yes, I would. If guns were legal and everyone else had one, you’d be doing yourself a disservice by not owning one

And I don't need a special reason? I can just say I want it for self defense?
