to protect yourself and family members. as an investment, many guns atleast hold there value whille cars go down in value and property is a large investment that is more risky. some guns become extremly valueble as they age and are therefore a good investment or atleast a good way to store value. guns can also be a good hobby, guns like the AR-15 come in many sizes, colors, with many optics, and attatchments so it is a way for people to spend excess money and time.
Your question calls for an opinion. My opinion is that people SHOULD be allowed to own a gun.
Yes
Your question is rather vague. If you mean what should a physician do if someone OWNS a gun- I would ask why they should do anything. Owning a gun is not an illness, and is a right guaranteed to Americans. About 1/3rd of he households in the US own at least one gun- and I know several doctors that own guns.
Because if you are against gun safety, you're probably dangerous when handling a gun. Many people that are not for gun safety never will and don't know as much as they probably should know about their gun/guns they own.
Depends on the people. For responsible adults, why not?
Adults that are not criminals that are not mentally ill.
It depends. You should check with an local attorney versed in gun laws.
That's too vague of a question to answer. You should consult an attorney in your area that is familiar with gun laws.
Because it's wrong, illegal and liability reasons.
No if the gun is not registered in your name , no you can not own a gun. if you do not have license to own a gun you can not have it either
No you do not have to be a gun expert to own a gun. As long as you are of legal age to own a firearm and you do not have any felony offenses on your record, you can own a gun.
One reason. There is a Federal law that says you must be at least 18.
