I have met more peaceful men and women
But I guess it is all to do with perceived level of threat and what kind of threat etc. Depending on where I lived in your country maybe I would do the same - I don't know but there is the delight in the mechanics of it all that you NRA (?) enjoy, It's a bit male.
I'm not a member of the NRA, I was raised in a household without firearms and didn't purchase my first gun until a year ago at age 47. I now own a grand total of two.
My stance at a glance:
1) Shooting guns in a sporting scenario is fun.
2) There are many guns in the hands of criminals and I do not trust/expect the government/police to respond quickly enough to save me in the event that my life is threatened. Personal responsibility is the name of the game for me.
3) I will do absolutely anything to protect myself and my loved ones from violent criminals.

DaButt, if you start believing anything printed by the Daily Mail you are a lost man.
Not sure where your quote came from but earlier you posted this:
Friends of the dead man told BBC London that Mr Duggan, who was also known as Starrish Mark
Seems likely that he was a gang member and I have no love lost for gang members.
