It's not a necessity but it definitely should be mandatory. Fewer people would f*ck around if everyone on the street was strapped.
More importantly though, owning a gun is a right granted to us by the US Constitution.

No, but I have a pretty good idea where you're going to come down on this issue.
My dad lives in a bad neighborhood in Florida and owns several guns for self-protection. I live in a very quiet community in Indiana and have no need for a gun, except perhaps for shooting defenseless furry animals. I do have a gun down at my grandmother's house, and was well taught how to shoot, but I have no need for it here in my home.
My girlfriend wouldn't let me have one anyway... and with my tendency to sleepwalk, I myself don't think it's a particularly good idea. You know what the stats say... you're more likely to kill a friend/family member on accident than you are to use your gun on someone who means you harm.

Guns are tools for a specific job. That's all.

No, but it is a right guaranteed by the US Constitution. It is that very right that keeps it unnecessary.

Not neccessarily, but it would be advised, with all these crazy lunatics rapists and sadists around.
