many people think that it is necessary to own a gun at home because they feel "safe and sound". Others think that keeping a gun at home is a really bad idea. The truth is that Having a gun can sometimes be a lucky dip. Sometimes you don't know why you have it or when  you can  use it. 

The question, why do we have a gun? has a really difficult question. As I said before, it can be because you feel powerful with it. You know that if someone tries to hurt you, it won't be worth trying to hurt you because you will shoot at him. However, let me tell you something. Imagine that you are being annoyed by your neighbour and you wish you could kill him. Would you hesitate on doing it? Of course not. But you have to remember that your kids and watching you, thus, they are learning from you.

It is necessary to use it whenever something is wrong? I would like to tell you a situation that I read on a book called " emotional intelligence". It was about a family that had gone out to the cinema and their little girl stayed at her grandmother's house- which was next to their house. The thing is that the girl went to the house alone and she heard her parents opening the door so ,she decided to hide in a cupboard in order to scare her parents. Nevertheless, when the parents heard a weird noise- they didn't know that it was from their daughter- the father didn't hesitate on grabbing a gun, opening the cupboard and shooting to the girl. He didn't know that it was his daughter. Therefore, I would like to ask what's the point on having a gun?

To sum up, I would like to say that a gun is not a toy and we have to be really carefull with it. Nevertheless, the most important thing is to learn to be patient with those who annoy us because if we shoot at them whenever we are not happy with something, in two years the human race will not exisist any more.
