A guy I knew told me about his dad that lives in a DC suburb. Presumably a nice one since he has a fancy job. His dad heard "a drug deal went down" in the area, so he bought a gun. "to protect his daughter", my friend told me. I don't know the guy's dad so I couldn't ask him if he thought about how having the gun in the house is dramatically more dangerous than not.
Reminds me of an old coworker who asked me how to safely store a loaded gun in a house with kids but could be grabbed in seconds in case of a break-in. I was like "uhh... you can't?"
