21 years active duty and US Veteran, as an adult I have never owned a gun. I honestly don't see the need. But it's nice to have the option if I ever do see the need.
Thank-you for your service; and, while you never 'owned' a gun, you are trained in arms; and, opened to protecting yourself and family members if a wild bear was trekking in your direction.
I look forward to the day when the new heaven and the new earth exists (Revelation 21:1); but until then, I'm glad you're open to people who feel a need for this option.
One might argue that stricter gun-purchase laws are needed for the common man; but, honestly, that will do nothing to hinder guns from falling into the hands of someone seeking to do evil.
I do believe there should be restrictions in place for people who have various issues that are too lengthy to get into in this post (i.e. restraining orders, etc).
Before I go forward, I want to note that this is strictly in reply to your comment without taking note of the video.
In the days of David and Goliath, a stone was used to save the peoples from the giant. (1 Samuel 17: 40-49).
In our fallen world, there will be wars and rumors of wars (Matthew 24: 6-14)...
Presumably, God knew there would be war; and, with war comes weaponry.
Lastly, while it will be wonderful when the necessity to protect ourselves from wild animals, and people wanting to do harm to the less-strong no longer exists; until that Great Day, I beg to differ with your comment.
You can choose to not have guns. That is your right. But in the US, that is not what everyone has to do.

Again, sincerest thanks for your service!

These incidents are happening because at least few guns are in wrong hands.
No offense; but in an ideal world you're right.
But, we don't live in an ideal world.
Unfortunately, we live in a fallen world.
