10. By replying to this thread? Don't know what you mean.

I do own guns. I keep them secured. I have one handgun and the others are shotguns and rifles.
The handgun is for house protection, as I live 15 miles from county sheriff dept. I don't have a carry permit for the handgun because it never leaves my property. All of the other guns are over 35 years old.
My b-I-l was bipolar and committed suicide by shooting himself in the head. He had attempted suicide in other ways before, but he would call and someone was always able to get to him.
Even though he had been admitted to psyche hospitals several times, he was able to purchase a 25 caliber handgun from a pawn shop. We never got the story from the police on how he was able to do this. I don't blame the gun for his death, but he shouldn't have been able to get one so easy.
