so you are also being the thought police and automatically branding people who carry firearms a threat. good to know that you and others who fear guns have some sort of telepathic powers that can tell who is a threat and who isnt. perhaps you should join the police force so you can use those grand powers and eliminate crime.

I think the irrational fear is in the minds of those who feel they must carry weapons and be preparred to attack.

I keep telling you silly logical posters. The answer is: Magic.

That's the only way to do it, so obviously that's what the gun goobs have in mind as our only protection.

I do not carry a firearm. I am not as paranoid as those who feel they must carry a firearm into a family restaurant.

I'd like to see politicians who champion this stuff put their money where their mouth is: let mobs of people with long guns stand in the first row at speeches and rallies.
I assume that ignorant statement also applies to cops to right? You must not want them open carrying a gun either, seeing as statistically, you are more likely to be shot by a cop than a citizen.
