Sounds good to me, eliza...

As for guns, they are a very useful item if one lives in wilderness conditions and has to hunt for one's food or ward off the odd lion or polar bear attack. Most country people used to have guns, mostly for those puposes, and you will certainly find no trapper in the far north of Canada without a rifle, I wouldn't think. But I agree that in modern cities guns are strictly a device for killing other people, and we'd be way better off if there were no guns at all in those places. Human nature being what it is, that's not likely to happen soon.
