After living out west for a while, I have come to the conclusion that there are definitely places where it makes sense to own a gun. For example, Real County TX, where one and a half sheriffs patrol two or three hundred square miles. Or McKinley Co NM, which has a total population density of maybe 1 person per three or four hundred square miles. In places like that, you really have to take some responsibility for your own safety. The nearest policeman could easily be a hundred miles away.
