63. Yes, absolutely.
I'm not afraid of guns, but I do want to see the human race evolve to the point where guns are no longer "necessary" for any reason, even "sport". For me, it's kind of a spiritual mindset, that owning one "attracts" that which people are afraid of. Perhaps a sporting use of a gun wouldn't attract the fears associated with those that use one for defense, but I choose not to have them in my life and thus, not attract the associated fears :)

If the woman I loved was into guns, there likely would be heated arguments about how that fits in with our spiritual ideas and hopefully come to a compromise, such as no guns on the property and just rent (if that's possible) for the sporting uses. Or do the paintball thing instead ;)
