Gun Ownership - are you for or against it and why?

RE: Gun Ownership - are you for or against it and why?
Be interesting to examine the voting along country lines.

I live in Australia, where it's very difficult to own any kind of firearm. Coincidentally we have one of the lowest rates (per capita ) of gun deaths in the world. The US has one of the highest.

In my opinion,an urbanite does not need a firearm in my country.

To be blunt,I really could not care less how many Americans blow their fool heads off. None of my business.

The fatuous and disingenuous arguments used by the NRA in the US remind me of this cynical aphorism:
