    I said almost no one needs one. There are still people who do need firearms. I’m not in that category anymore.

    I fully recognize I can and do make dumb mistakes in my life, which is why I am so anal about gun safety. I make a show of me checking the chamber or cylinder. I make it known to anyone in the house that I am removing a gun from its case and unlocking it. I ask others to double-check the guns for me to ensure they are unloaded, and even then, they are never pointed in the direction of someone. Lack of respect for the dangers of firearms leads to negligence and negligence kills.
