Concealed carry permits soar amid political, safety fears

Just as millions of other Americans have in recent years, she bought a gun and got her concealed carry permit, which allows her to legally carry the weapon on her or in her car, as long as she abides by state laws.

"I just wanted something for protection," Worley said. "I never grew up around firearms, but when I got married, my husband, he had grown up around them and he shoots a lot, so he got me used to them."

Initially, she really didn't want anything to do with them, though. But the break-ins at their west Buncombe residence changed her mind.

"With me being here by myself sometimes, I figured I need to get over that fear," Worley said. "I started going to the gun range with my husband, and I decided to take the course."

2. O can tell you why so many people feel the need to be able to defend themselves --

Because there is a vocal minority that displays nothing but absolute contempt for the safety of innocent people while displaying no interest in confronting those bent on committing violent crime.

The phenomenon is on display day after day and it's subtext is unmistakable.
