It's all about safety, never keep anything loaded in the house. Sometimes I'll just go through all the firearms can confirm they are all unloaded.

I don't get how people can just keep firearms loaded. So unsafe, same reason I don't carry. Just bonkers to me.

You would not believe the amount of accidental shootings I have made in 10 years on an ambulance due to people keeping loaded guns in the house. It's wildly unsafe

My concealed carry handgun is loaded with one in the chamber 24/7. I feel very safe about it.

The key to it being safe is that I don’t fucking play with it like a toy. It’s either locked in my nightstand safe or in a holster in my waistline.

It takes so little time to load a handgun that it's practically meaningless. I don't carry because it statistically makes you more likely to die or get shot in an altercation. Crazy statistic but it's true.

Its a similar statistic to you being more likely to get into a motorvehicle accident near home.

Context of the statistic matters, I don't think people who carry are more likely to get shot because they carry but that those who carry are more likely to be involved with individuals who would shoot at them.

Pretty ineffective to have an unloaded firearm when you need to use it.

Having to load it in a panic induces malfunctions.
