Topic: Gun Culture
Americans love their guns! Many believe that they need as many guns as they can buy, to defend against an attack by some present or future tyrannical government. Others believe they need guns to defend against criminal intruders. I used to be one of these people, until I asked myself, what were the chances that an intruder would break-in right when I was near my gun, in order for me to use it. I decided that the chances of a gun being found and used by my child were much higher. Thus, I don't own a firearm.
Whatever side of the debate a person falls on, it still boils down to freedom of choice. Or, it usually does. This is not the case in a community in Georgia.
Gun ownership is mandatory in Kennesaw, Georgia. In 1982, a law was passed requiring all heads of households to keep at least one firearm in theirs homes. So many crimes committed with so many guns on the streets, and yet a law is issued to require more! On the gun owners side of the argument, crime in that community is low...but that's with a small population.
Mandatory gun ownership -- the things that make you go hmmmmmm....
