I am a professional investigator licensed and state qualified for weapons carry open or concealed and I am aware of the good and bad of weapons.
I'll be as short and blunt as I can with my opinions and thoughts.
I read lots on the issue and what I do not get is how people seem to be reversed in their fears.
Instead of fearing the person with a weapon they fear the weapon and want to ban it. Ban the weapon and the problems go away. Not.
Make all the gun ban or control laws you want but know this....... only law abiding citizens with follow them.
A criminal or deranged individual has no concerns with the rules of society and will beg borrow and or steal a gun, period.
Take away our guns and only the criminals will have them.
The gunman that killed 8 people in the Seal Beach salon in LA recently may have been killed himself if there had been at least one individual that was licensed to carry and had a minimal amount of training. Granted he may have killed her first before she knew what was happening but there may have been a chance, and if more than one had been carrying......
My only concern with citizen concealed carry is the ones with no real training. By training I do not mean crawling through mud in boot camp, just safety and the concept.
Georgia is one of the states wising up. An example is a transit system used to ban weapons carry and criminals made it a frequent target. This has been changed. Now the criminals are aware and the problem has substantially reduced.
99% of the time shooters and criminals nter establishments or workplaces knowingly the people inside are not likley to be carrying. Go figure.
For those who agree I want to remind you to train. Its easy. If you carry in the car train yourself to access it. Under the seat or in the glove box is where they will find it if you are attacked and injured or killed.
Ladies, keep it on top or in a dedicated pocket on your purse. Practice at home accessing it. Malls have the largest numbers of robberies and its like the Movie Jaws, they keep it quiet so people will keep coming to the beach. A good firearm ladies like to carry is the Smith & Wesson 642 air weight. If it is too heavy, takes too much effort to cock or load, and has complicated safety levers she will leave it at home.
With today's economy a number of good people are going to become desperate and do bad things. Crime will always be on the rise.
For the most part if I'm awake I am carrying. To need it and not have it is my largest fear.
Forbid I see a sick individual on a spree and cannot help or protect myself of mine......
