Fear of Guns

I’ve known many people that are simply “afraid of guns.” This is an illogical fear of an inanimate object that is only dangerous when in the hands of dangerous people. There isn’t mush to be written about fear of guns except to say “it’s all in your head.” If your mind “feeds” the idea that guns are “scary” and themselves to be feared, you will fear them. But if you learn more about them you’ll see they are, like fire, only dangerous if mishandled or misused. If properly handled and used, they can be a strong force for good and can keep you alive. Never fear them. Only fear the fools who misuse them. (Natalie Foster)
