That's fine. Personally, I'm afraid of guns. I don't think I will ever be in a situation where a gun is also present that I feel particularly good about. Guns are far, far too efficient at killing for my taste.
It's a tool with a very, very specific purpose. That purpose is substantially more specialized than most fans presume. If it's venison season, I don't mind having a gun around. Although a bow is probably better 'cuz the season is longer. I had an SKS in high school. It was empowering, which is a big fat warning sign. Now I have a toddler in the house; I'm terrified that she'll eat a magnet. I'd be a nervous wreck if there were any ammunition-bearing device in the house. Shit, I'm glad the paintball marker has no gas.
Ban rare-earth magnets from your household. EDIT: I should note that I'm not particularly a fan of hunting. For sport, of course, but also to an extent for sustenance. I don't pass judgment but it's not something I would do. I'm honestly not sure it's worth the time you have to spend handling a dangerous firearm. I have been wrestling with vegetarianism recently and decided to go with about 95%. As a moral stand it may fall short, but for practical (health, industry support) purposes 95% is 95% as good as 100. So I'm happier now.
