I am not against guns.

If you want to have one go ahead. The Constitution says you can and I love that document.

I am just saying that the people I grew up with, know well, don't carry them.

My dad and brother were hunters and my grandfather who raised me was a police officer for 37 years. (My grandparents raised me because my mother died as a result of my birth)

You say I don't know and I say I do know if people I am close friends with carry a gun, a few own one. This country is divided into different areas and they have more or less population and different kinds of lifestyles. I grew up in German Village of Columbus, Ohio very close to farming area. I now live in a suburb of Cincinnati.

I think that most people who live in the area where I grew up visit the heavily populated areas of the United States where things are different and more people carry guns. I think that a lot of people in those heavily populated areas rarely visit areas of suburban Ohio.

So, dang it, I DO know the people who are my close friends and know if they carry a gun.

Happy New Year. Please don't shoot me. And I don't care if people know we don't have a gun. I am a decoratey type girl, so it would ruin my front yard, that sign.
