Should I buy a handgun?

I have felt that I was leaning toward gun control for the greater good, plus I hate the idea that so many crazy people I see out there on a daily basis could have guns, but I am beginning to feel that it may be a lost cause. Even if there were restrictions on gun ownership, removing guns from Americans would be a political impossibility as well as a logistic nightmare. So, should I just get a gun so that I can at least protect myself from all those people packing heat?

And if I do, how can I be sure that I will only use it when it is completely legal and right to do so? I definitely don't want to be a Zimmerman.

    you seem to be very intelligent by your question.

    it is only up to you how you use your rights to bare arms

    rember if you use it make sure you have a reliable witness for your own protection.

    if there is no reliable withess just make sure you are in the right 100%.

    hope this helps.
