Crime happens everywhere. it doesn't discriminate and doesn't pick a place and time to happen. Now get over yourself.

"*******s" - really? No wonder why people are worried about the concealed carry crowd. Just look at the level of discourse in this one thread. Are these the sort of people that you would trust with a gun?

Does anyone remember the cartoon Beevis and Butthead? I think I have a case of nostalgia.

I know I don't live in fear.

I don't suppose you carry a gun? So does that mean you will solely rely on law enforcement in that immediate time of need? When seconds count? Let me know how that works out for you.
Who's living in fear? Someone that thinks they need a gun or someone that doesn't?

This thread deals with common sense verse knee jerk reaction.

I guarantee all you walk around daily next to people who are carrying. Sitting on the bus next to someone. At dinner I can promise there are numerous patrons at tables carrying. In a movie theater, mall, etc and you never know..

So all of sudden you realize that people will have the right to carry and you freak out. Seriously..

It always amazes me how the direct correlation between gun ownership and shooting deaths is lost on certain people...."if only we had more guns, then things would be better...". Nutjobs, the lot of you.

Only Retardicans think that criminals are some breed of people
that a "law abiding citizen" can't flip and turn into a criminal
