There are some people who like to make others suffer with or without a gun however normal people are not afraid of those who are armed among us. That's one of the things that never made sense to me, the anti-gunners lament about legal gun owners who carry concealed because then they don't know who's carrying but also complain about people open carrying because they complain it's an intimidation tactic. So that says to me that the only real complaint is that they don't want anyone carrying at all so that when they commit their crimes they have greatly reduced their chance of getting injured or killed.Okay, but imagine that you have a choice of where to live. A place where you have a 1% chance of dying or a place where you have a 0.1% chance of dying.
You're less likely to have to deal with bad circumstances. You're less likely to need a tool to fight back with.
Even you yourself has said you'd move. But even with your a gun in your hand, you're more likely to die an early death than someone in say the UK.
I don't want people to have to suffer. But humans seem to like to make others suffer. With guns they do it far more efficiently than without.
On the other hand, people plotting and carrying out criminal activity should and deserve to be concerned/worried about those who can lawfully end their lives.
Yes, wouldn't it be nice if they actually were scared and that put them off. But it doesn't. People with guns tend to think they're invincible or something. Which causes problems.
Funny how the millions of people who carry everyday do so in such a responsible way
