I've never owned a gun, and I've never felt the need to own a gun. Not when I lived in a small town and not when I lived in a big city.

Fair play, I believe you. I also have never felt that way, I am simply applying my views on self defence in Europe to a wildly different set of laws...so I'm guessing what I would do. Not saying that's how everyone feels - just how I feel.
