I took my c.c.w course this weekend and am in the prosses of finishing the paper work though my local sheriffs department. I simply can't believe how many people think its a bad idea to carry a gun. I guess they dont watch the news. Or care about thier family.

"It'll never happen to me."

I remember getting into a gun control argument with a female friend in law school.  She was doing it all from a very intelligent, philosophical standpoint, which suits her very much.  I remember her saying "I think that carrying a gun shows that you don't trust people, I mean, why would anyone be so angry with me that I would have to kill them to save my own life?  If you don't have a bunch of people mad at you all the time then you shouldn't be so afraid."

I looked in her eyes and replied in my gravest tone, "I knew a girl in undergraduate school who thought the same way you did.  It only took ONE forcible rape to change her mind."  

You should have seen the look on her face.

So when are you going to have another CCW class, Duke?  You'll be able to accept us Jackson County folk now, right?
