I am sorry, but as a handgun owner, I must disagree. In the civilized world, owning a (hand)gun usually means you have to pass some kind of test.
In my country, it is a written test of about 40 questions where only one single mistake is allowed, non-live gun manipulation where you have to basically be flawless, and then live gun manipulation and firing.
The law is pretty strict, which means actually using a gun to defend yourself has to be absolutely last resort.
This and what else makes the mind boggle is how these Walmart-fed, low self-control guys think they would be able to properly handle themselves in a crisis situation like an armed burglary or amok run for example.
Watching too many hero movies probably fucked up the American psyche for good.
Look how often even trained police officers who outman the perpetrator 20:1 get shot before they can kill or subdue the target.
And Billy Bob thinks that he could handle professional criminals if they come to rob his house at gunpoint and would stand a chance lmao
It’s like those Jan 6th guys thinking they have a fighting chance against the US military
Thank goodness for living in a civilized country where things like that simply don’t happen.
I can’t imagine anyone being so cowardly and scared of their own shadow that they would even want to own a handgun
Absolute fucking shitebags

Ah yes, a test.
Surely anyone passing a test like that, like for a driving license, would never, ever break the law and cause danger to those around them, right?
Sure, there are cases, but they go into the 10s per year (with LEGALLY held guns). People are not perfect, but we did hell of good job with our laws.

They’d be blown away before they could unholster (while out of breath) their pistol. Don’t play hero.
