Perhaps you and I have a different meaning of "common". Evidently we would also have a different understanding of the word "anecdote".

I've noticed a lot of anti gun people here that seem to have that hive mind.
I'm just saying I have no need for a gun and don't care for the often hyper-crazy gun culture that I always see.

How about that gang robbing the store across the street? They come calling,whatcha gonna do? To quote TD "call Ghost Busters" or 911 either way your dead probably.
Those who use guns for protection tend not to worship them.
