    Why

    I will be 58 in April. In all that time I have never had an instance where I needed one. Maybe I am good at avoiding those situations? But don't figure I need one now. Besides buying, maintaining, shooting for practice, would take gas money from my riding! I am not anti gun however. I will NOT say I won't have one at some point.

    Funny after chastising to reply to your question of who does not own a hand gun, there are those that still tell you they have one. Makes you wonder.
    I just bet that doesn't go over well. Run for cover they have guns!

    It was pretty ridiculous.
    My asking who doesn't own one started a deluge of guys who own one, what kind, blah blah blah.
    Yes, it does make one wonder.
    Freud would have a field day. It must be either phallic or oedipal or both.

    No, I don't own a hand gun. Why, cause the government won't let me. Why, because in 1968 I was caught and felony prosecuted by the state of Calif for two marijuana cigarettes, 1 1/2 grams total, sentenced to 5 yr probation, $500 fine and not allowed to own a hand gun ever, I was 18 years old, end of story.

    Wow. Having some tokes makes you a threat to blow someone away with a gun. Insane logic.
    If the gov't let you tomorrow, would you run right to the gun shop?

    You asked if "Anyone NOT own a Handgun" which I do not, as a convicted felon I can't own one, but my late wife legally owned many, we taught our two daughters at a young age safe weapons practices and both including my wife have hunted all our lives. My brothers as well as my late father and mother were gun owners and I was raised with guns in the house all my life.
    I served in the US army an earned a marksman badge and am quite proficient in the use of small arms, but I could still not own a hand gun then or now, but I do own a 357 caliber high powered air rifle that will stop any anything in North America or intruding into my home.

    I am 64 years of age with only that one black mark on my record, I am also a legally registered user of medical marijuana in Calif. and legally grow my own year round. I legally keep a lb under lock and key in storage at all times, but can't own a handgun.
    Strange, what took away my right to own a gun is perfectly legal now, but I still can't own a handgun.
    I have access to anything I might want to shoot and have plenty of friends who own & are willing to carry firearms to and from the range for me to shoot if I ask.
    I go to the range regularly to punch paper to keep sharp and also to sight-in my high powered air rifles before hunting season... so would I run right to the gun shop if it were legal for me to own a hand gun? NO I have no need, ya see I can't own a hand gun, but it ain't against the law for me to shoot and carry a high powered air rifle for which I don't even need a cc permit.

    I'll never understand such a complicated interpretations of Second Amendment and witness its variation in different States . I can only say - guns are dangerous toys and design for killing . I also learned , that most innocent people die from guns , even they have "rights to defend themselves" . You tell me , how it works ?
