My 2 cents on Guns and protection:
1) Having gun is like having an insurance policy, you don't need it until you need it, and then you probably wish you had it.
2) One size does not fit all. I firmly believe God calls some of us to be martyrs/ pacifist and also firmly believe he calls some of us to be protectors. It was a good thing Hitler was stopped with force/violence (only way to stop him), it is a good thing for a father to protect his family (lots of ways of doing this and force/violence is one of them).
3) I am huge history fan, and we live in a rare time in world history in the USA with so much peace and prosperity(hopefully this does not change soon). A lot of history has been brutal - lots of raping, pillaging and death (tribal warfare). History of man is doing bad things to one another.
God gave us a brain we need to use it we also need to pray everyday for discernment.
