Views on guns are various and depend on the country and person. In Japan, people aren't allowed to have guns except for policemen, soldiers and hunters. In the case of hunters, they need to apply to the Japanese government for a license and be examined thoroughly. Japan is one of the countries that control gun ownership most thoroughly. So gun crimes in Japan are less than most other countries.
On the other hand, I think the U.S. is one of the countries that are most tolerant of having guns. Americans think that having guns is necessary to protect themselves. However, even if they have guns, it is obvious that they can't protect themselves, when we look at the fact that mass killings often occur in the U.S.
How about your country? What do you think about gun control? Do you have a gun or want to have one? Have you ever shot a gun?

Hello, Star Light. Thank you for your comment.
Hello, Rose. Thank you for the information. I am surprised at the fact.
Hello, Onee－chan. Thank you for your comment. I also have shot a gun with a toy gun when I was a child. :D
Hi, Roman. Thank you for your comment. I have the same opinion as you.
Hi. Olga. Thank you for your comment. The relationship between Russian and guns are interesting.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Paula. I hear some high school students in the U.S. push for gun control after mass killings by guns in high schools. They may make the future of the U.S.
Yes, toy gun. :D
No, I haven't, Tam. Actually, I don't know about the rule. But, I never see gun freely sold in my country. Surely, it is dangerous to have it privately.
Thank you for sharing.
Hi Tam!
In Ukraine it supposed to be the same as in Japan. But it is not as clear as in Japan.
I don't have a gun and I don't want to have any. I remember, long time ago we went with our classmates and a teacher to the place with some guns. But those were not the firearms.
