42. Luckily most gun owners and CCWers have better judgement than you

As evidenced by the fact that they haven't shot people in situations where you claim you would.

In fact I was carrying concealed a while ago and saw somebody come in with a holstered pistol. Didn't see if he had a badge clipped on his belt on the other side, didn't matter too much to me.

No shootout, no crime, nobody was affected at all. I finished my purchase and left, he went about his business.

It's a good thing many people who lack the maturity and judgement to carry don't. Your claims in what constitutes a threat wouldn't fly in the real world, period.

Of course if you expressed your opinion on what you say is a threat in one of my CCW classes when we went over scenarios and were steadfast in it I would remove you from the class and notify the sheriffs office in your county of your statements in case you tried to get a permit later.
