Can You Support You/your Spouse Keeping A Weapon In The Bedroom? by Ryabcool(m): 8:20am On Dec 04, 2012
The idea of a man keeping a weapon in his bedroom for protection, what's your take on it? Can you keep a weapon in your bedroom for safety? Take for instance, your house is about to get burgled by robbers, would you prefer it if there is something(perhaps a gun) that can protect you and your family from these people? I'm basing my question on something I just read online. Honest/Candid views please... undecided undecided

true. But what if it were assassins? Wouldn't you at least give your family a fighting chance or would you wait for it to happen first?

that is why i said u never know d benefit nor d danger, until........
If an assasin comes into ur bedroom and u are able to first attack him via your weapon u kept at home, that is d benefit of keeping d weapon in your bedroom. On d other hand, if an assassin comes into your bedrrom, only to attack u with d weapon u kept in your bedroom, that is d danger of keeping weapon in d bedroom.

you can't possibly put the weapon in plain sight. Its meant to be hidden and only for you and your spouse to know its location. An assassin can never know where the weapon is unless he/she has been told...

It's quite normal for couples to have such weapons in their homes, especially in countries where it's legal to - if you've got a license for it. (I'm thinking the USA)

But then again, if you've got kids, you've got factor them in and be very, very careful...to make sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands.

Depends on how peaceful your marriage and family is. You wouldn't like your spouse pointing the damn gun on you in the heat of a brawl.

Its a good idea,but it must be kept out of eye sight,its good in a country prone to social vices,where every man for himself.

i will never keep a weapon in my house neither will i encourage my partner to do so. Reason is simple. The devil might tempt one of you to use it on the other if you enter into an argument. Even the bible warns us to flee from any appearance of evil. the devil is sly smiley smiley wink

As a man, i will keep weapon wether my spouse likes it or not. She would not even know. As for her keeping one; i won't accept, female genders has the habit of thinking straight, she may use it on me if she get infuriated unlike men.

In my primary school a brother to one of my classmates accidentally shot himself with his father's gun, which he found in his father's drawer.
Of course as children we were never told the truth. We were told he fell in the bath and broke his head. Bottom line, I don't support!
Re: Can You Support You/your Spouse Keeping A Weapon In The Bedroom? by Nobody: 5:01pm On Dec 04, 2012
Where else do you keep it? In the pantry? All licensed guns comes in a secured box and locked ..... just keep the keys safe especially if you have young curious kids.

Pow! Pow!! Pow!!!! grin grin grin

My Brother and I have had to use my Dad's weapon to attack a gang of robber (not fully armed though). In Nigeria u can never rely on the police at night. U MAY need some Bendel insurance alonside to be effective at its use.
Re: Can You Support You/your Spouse Keeping A Weapon In The Bedroom? by dadicvila(m): 5:02pm On Dec 04, 2012
why not,with the level of insecurity and reckless shedding of blood in this nation i urge everybody to own a gud gun if they can afford it....its not like you will go confronting legions of armed robbers but then you can never tell when it will come handy

As a young boy, after watching Arelu (a yrouba movie back in the 80s), I went into my dad's room, picked his unloaded gun and aimed at the door. This was the exact moment my mom decided to walk in...she nearly passed out. Of course that was the last time I ever saw a gun in the house.

But now bring a father myself, I dont have a gun in the house but I do have a weapon in our bedroom. My wife was totally against..the stuff is still in our room..handy whenever needed but she knows nothing about it. It is a sports equipement but can surely be used to disable an intruder.

If you watch local news anywhere in the U.S, no one will need to tell you before you get something to protect urself with. Local news will make you paranoid.

I'm not hoping for anything to happen but better to be prepared to defend my household.

I've always thought of having a 'shinning' legal private gun. But i won't be foolish enough to keep it load-full of bullets except for emergency occurence.

After experiencing robbery first hand, I dont think I ever want to be caught slipping.. Especially with my babies in the house.. I would have gotten an AK-47 if it was legal..
