It depends on where you are. In the U.S. yes, almost everywhere you can legally carry a gun on your own property as long as you aren't a felon. The exceptions are cities that have a gun ban. D.C. was one of those cities, and I believe Chicago still is.

ADDED: (in the US) If you are legally entitled to possess a firearm - AND - the firearm is of a lawful type (as defined in the US Code) - AND - you are lawfully capable of possessing a firearm (not a minor - not an adjudged mental incompetent - not a convicted felon - not convicted of domestic violence - etc)) yes, you may carry a firearm WITHIN the walls of your home (but not in your exterior yard), even if your local jurisldiction prohibits carrying it "in public."

This is debatable depending upon who you are. Your opinion will change based upon your social backgrounds, area/state/country of residence and many other things. Logically the answer is no, to prevent you using it (when you are not thinking clearly) in a way you would regret later. By the same charge if you know 100% you will need it, either make sure you know what you are doing, or avoid that situation. Answer: The first question is to determine the legality. This is dependent on the registration requirements in your jurisdictin. Many jurisdictions have strict rules on who can an cannot carry guns. The second is to determine the rational for thinking that you need to have a gun. Availability of weapons often leads to the escalation of a situation to the use of deadly force.

Depends on what state you are in, how old you are, and what were you doing before the police find it.

In most U.S. states, you can carry a gun. Most states require a permit to carry a gun, a few don't, and in two states, you cannot legally carry a gun.
