For the sake of this question, assume the guns are someone's personals in their home, or those in possession of an armed guard or some person of authority. But try not to consider guns in the possession of peace officers.
If you answer yes: Do you think you have a false sense of security? Is your feeling based more on a pro-gun attitude? Do you feel safer because you feel guns are a deterrent or because you feel more capable of defending yourself?
If you answer no: Are you afraid of guns in general? Do you think your "fear" may be based on misconceptions of guns and/or gun owners?
For me, I don't really have a feeling about the presence of guns as long as it's someone I feel I can trust. However, I would generally prefer guns were kept away. I feel a home with guns is much more likely to be the target of theft (for the guns). And I feel an accident with a gun is far more likely than any self defense situation.
