I have plenty of kids. Most of them are 19-21 year old males.

So either you were a player in grade school or those are not your biological issue. Have a couple of your own and see if your point of view doesn't change.

A baseball bat should provide your family with adequate protection IMO. and speaking from someone who has had too many friends and family blow their heads off i don't think it is worth it. just call me a wimpy californian.

I think a man would overpower me with a baseball bat, with a gun I would just pull the trigger.
There was an incident in my community a few weeks ago. A 9 year old boy shot his twin brother with his fathers gun, the kid died, and I dont know where the father was.

Wonder what the numbers are on drownings compared to accidental firearms deaths. You people against pools too?

perhaps to a degree, but there are just some kids that are both stupid and really screwed up and 9/10 parents are too delusional to realize that johnny is more than your average depressed teenager. the "my child would never do that!" attitude is very prevalent in this country (not just talking about suicide, also talking about teenage sex, drugs etc).

I'm sure teenage suicide is off the charts, my neighbors brother took his own life in September, and he was only 19. It was very sad, his family is related to my brother-in-laws, they all hunt and have guns and I'm sure he had access to a gun, he chose to go a different way. It is very sad for the family when these things happen.

Darwinism at its finest.

true to some degree, but guns make it too easy for someone to get trashed have a REALLY bad moment and do something stupid. now the people i know who offed themselves were universally jerkoffs but how many 18 year olds aren't jerkoffs?

reminds me of something that happened while I was in high school. at a party, there were a few drunk guys playing around with a gun that they thought was not loaded. one of them put the gun in his mouth and dared another to pull the trigger. he did, the guy died, and the trigger man went to jail for a while.

there are plenty of kids who offed themselves who if they survived could lead happy lives. trust me.

yea a kid I went to HS hung himself on 9/10/01 in his dorm after he broke up with his GF. Pretty sad especially since if he had waited only a day, maybe he would have seen the big picture.

Sad story, but that is just moronic. Drunk or not, loaded gun or not, it's simply moronic.

To each his own, but I will never have a gun in my house.
If everybody walking the face of the planet saw it your way it would be great. However, that's sadly not the case. If a home invader comes in my house he may not walk out under his own power.

When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
Thomas Jefferson

"The said Constitution [shall] be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press, or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms."
Samuel Adams of Massachusetts -- U.S. Constitution ratification convention, 1788
