Additionally, look at all the anger, fear & hate in society now. People being shot because they turn in a driveway or came to a door. It isn’t the bad guy I will encounter on a daily basis, it is the uneducated fearful good citizen.

Then there is the gun with no safety lock that gets found in grandma’s nightstand when the grandkids visit…
You are much more likely to be killed or injured by a licensed inattentive or drunk driver than you are an unlicensed law abiding citizen legally carrying a concealed weapon. Maybe that's what you should be worried about?
