Re: Federal agents hunt for guns, one house at a time
Well, there's the whole idea that if you own a gun you'll be more prepared to stop a criminal from burglarizing your home, self-defense, etc.
There are issues with this mentality, and if you don't train extensively in the use of firearms under high-stress conditions, you could potentially put yourself in more danger for having one than you would have been without it. If a criminal sees you have a gun, you just became his first target, are you ready to defend yourself?
