The VAST MAJORITY of the ones I know support the public's right to have guns. As was stated to me - We can't be everywhere.

I would rather have mine and never need it that need it and never have it.
I AGREE! I have the same experience with many retired cops that I know. Many carry and some don't but all that I know have no problem of citizens exercising that right. When you need a gun it will be in the next few seconds, not a phone call away and response time getting there.
