    The better question is why was a handgun needed? People shouldn’t buy deadly weapons for fun.

      Most people buy a handgun like that for self-defense. Likely because they don’t expect the cops to show up and protect them. And there isn’t anything wrong with owning something dangerous if it’s property secured and used safely. These parents were negligent.
