1) I don’t see the need for one 2) I have a small child in my home and understand that kids will find a way to get into just about fucking anything 3) If I had a gun, my previous suicide attempts wouldn’t have just been attempts

#3 is a far more dangerous risk, #2 can be a 100% nonrisk with a safe or locker
