Everything has roots. Everything. Every stupid thing has roots. I was doing alot of googling looking for "he won't remember it, so it's ok to abuse" roots, and I just couldn't find anything. So, I thought maybe you guys can help me to figure this out.

I talked to probably hundreds by now American men about it and they all pretty much said the same thing that they feel SAFE to have a gun, so they can protect themselves and their families. So, of course, in this situation, there is always a question WHAT MADE THEM FEEL SO UNSAFE ON THE FIRST PLACE?

Although I was not circumcised, I would feel safer with a gun in the house.

(I don't have one now, because I have a daughter in my home, BTW)
