Women being assaulted while walking in a park wouldn't think it's extreme to be armed. And that happens, frequently.
People being pulled out of their vehicle and pummeled with bricks during a "localized" riot wouldn't think it's extreme to be armed. And that happens.
Why do you live in abject terror of firearms? How likely do you really think it is that you will be shot by a gang of feral guns?
Again. Not scared of guns. Scared of unchecked gun nuts like you.
And your paranoia is misplaced. I don't own any guns, but I certainly don't want a potential assailant or burglar to be certain of that, nor do I want one of them to be certain that my wife was disarmed by those who jump at their own shadows who would demand that she perform her home visits for work unarmed.
See how silly you sound when you try to insult based on weak assumption? You literally have nothing to fear from me or from concealed carry permit holders, yet you freely admit being "scared" of perhaps the most law abiding citizens out there.
I don't recall ever being against concealed carry permit holders. They have at least shown some responsibility in getting the permit. I do have a problem with gun nuts who strap a gun to their leg in a bad imitation of John Wayne, and prance up and down the isles of Walmart. Many hoping for an opportunity to be macho and shoot someone. For them, the gun is a fashion statement more than anything else.
Think about what you said. You said, "Many hoping for an opportunity to be macho and shoot someone", but at the same time you also said, "The gun is a fashion statement more than anything else". Obviously, you have no credible way of knowing whether they actually want to shoot someone or if they're just carrying around an empty rifle to look cool and would run away like an unarmed liberal if confronted with a deadly situation, but you're claiming both simultaneously.
Now, do you not realize that, in the case of a yahoo carrying a rifle strapped to his leg, you can easily see it and simply avoid being in his general vicinity, much like sane people avoid pink vagina hats? Also, how many times have you gone to Walmart and see somebody with a gun strapped to his leg? If never (as I suspect), why are you afraid of them?
Quite frankly, I'm not aware of a gun-totin' yahoo at Walmart unstrapping a rifle from their leg and committing a mass shooting.
I wasn't referring to rifles you dumb ass. However, strapping on an empty gun can be nothing more than a fashion statement
In that case you have nothing to fear from such a person. They're a braggart and should simply be ignored until they go away.
Now, how often do you go into Walmart and see people openly carrying weapons?
