I don't have the need to carry a firearm. For what? Protection? From what? The potential criminal? From who? Please. Most people carry guns to get their Joneses on feeling powerful and in control. Yes there are Criminals that are out for unsuspecting people, I get that. But I would much rather advocate for better economic opportunities for all. Most people who rob do it for the money. If they have their own money usually they won't mess with yours. Guns are here. And as long as they keep saying President Obama is going to take away your guns, They go get more. The only person getting their use of the Gun is Weapon manufacturers. They are making money hand over foot. And gun violence is running amuck. the weapons people don't care about good gun owners or bad gun owners, they just want sales. And though there are those who think that their Second Amendment right has been God given to them, they never consider the rights of those who chose not to indulge. They want their rights respected, but fuck the rights of those who do not chose guns. And what you felt is what we call dis respected or dissed.
