While I'm not sure what every day carry and pets have in common, I do have 4 cats. Ages, 15, 14, 2 and 1. They don't seem to care if I am armed or not.

The little kids on the school bus used to use it as a footstool. It was locked while on the bus; but I had the key in my pocket. I shot on our HS rifle team for four years. It was perfectly legal in 1960. While the rifle I carried was only a single shot .22, with it's accuracy, it was a very lethal weapon and could easily kill a person.


I have no idea why everybody is making such a big deal about adults that can carry! Unless we don't trust today's adults as much as we trusted our kids fifty years ago.

Our guns went to school with us everyday. We had gun racks in our vehicles, with arsenals across the back window.
We were not even 18 and there was never a mention of it being BAD!
I took my .410 shotgun to school in the 3rd grade for show & tell.


What changed, to restrict my 2nd amendment, from then to now? There was no amendment to the constitution, letting the government change it, using statutory law.

I don't care what party they are from, this proposal in Tennessee is not a solution to anything.

Please stop. Stop trying to profess that you know anything about carrying.

If only I knew what you looked like, I'd be happy to oblige.

I absolutely guarantee you someone could kill a person with your seatbelt if they wanted, by strangulation. Just sayin'...
