- Go to More people are buying guns, getting concealed permits and practicing
That's why this is such a great country . . . .
I'm free to own and carry a gun and you don't have to.
BTW, all the things dangerous about a gun that you mentioned are also dangerous about a knife. Ever carry any sharp implements around on a really bad day? Why is it you don't kill someone?

Here is my problem with more people carrying guns.
Even nice people have a bad day. Now, allow a guy with an attitude problem to carry one on a particularly bad day, the wrong person may get shot.
Worse yet, concealed isn't necessarily secure, meaning more chances for kids to come in contact with guns and get shot. Which is the main reason I won't have a gun in my house. If it is secure, then it isn't going to do me any good any way, by the time I get it out and loaded. If it isn't secure, I have at least two kiddos who wouldn't leave it alone whether they know it is dangerous or not.
