There will never be a reconciliation of acceptance of the notion of being an armed citizen. Nor will there ever be a valid argument why not to.

Gun owners, 99% or higher, ARE responsible citizens with their version of insurance. It has nothing to do with the perceived or real need or not.

It is in the category of religion or politics. Nobody is right or wrong, it is a personal choice.

For those who have never been around guns, or those who have lived with them in family sporting....both have a distorted view of the subject. That is not a negative subject...just reality.

Now that is a good argument Billy. I haven't trouble with you or any other responsible person carrying a gun if it it what you believe is the right thing to do. It aches my heart for anyone who hasn't been here to think we are a .....dangerous armpit of the world. Plus there are a lot of people who are not aging hippies, who are very law conscious, who are decent people, who do not think it necessary to own a gun...YET. Now I'm done.
