Um maybe you sure, but in the history of mass shootings even military bases have been targets. Navy Yard in D.C. is one example, I think Ft Hood was another.
I feel lucky myself I am 51, have not touched a firearm since I was 19. I did have some idiot walk between my house with a riffle up his coat sleeve a couple years ago. But even where I live I do worry about the possibility. And it is very rural compared to where you say you live.
And again, I have not, nor will ever call for a 100% ban on all firearms. But we make way too many and they are way too easy to obtain.
