I scored 7.  Ours are pretty low.  Maybe it is the type life we lead, the place we live, and the associations we have.

Hey, I won!!! I scored a 29!! I think my score would go down if I had a higher number of loaded guns in the house. Think I'll go load the .44spec. Hasn't been out of the safe in a couple months. Probably lonely, I'll put it next to the .45 so they can talk to each other. :D gypsyman

Your total is -2.

(Less than 20)The Metropolitan Police Department is hiring. Look at our main page for hiring details if you think you qualify as a police officer

Now I think that is a MINUS TWO (-2) and potentially a new low.

We get a lot of extra credit (negative score) for having more than 5 loaded guns within arm's reach... ;D

Heck, I carry one on me at all times except when I'm in bed and them their is one within arms reach.

Working swing shifts is what hurt my score.  Like mom used to say "Nothing good usually happens after midnight."

My mom always said "if you're not in bed by 9, just come on home."

I scored an 18.

Well I dunno how you boys scored so low I scored a 49. From what I can tell having loaded guns in your home is not a good thing on this quiz.  Now driving a car for a Pharmacy part time is prolly not a good thing either!  ::)
